A brief history of the Union Pacific Adams Subdivision:


06/16/22


This simple steel stringer bridge crosses Lakeview Drive, just south of Packwaukee.
It is also located near the Buffalo Lake Bridge
The bridge rests on concrete abutments, which have been constructed for two tracks. This is a common theme throughout this line, with expansion points in almost every bridge.

The author has ranked the bridge as locally significant, due to the common design.
The photo above is an overview. The bridge can be accessed from the road it crosses.
