Tuolumne County, California Bridges: Jacksonville Road Bridge across the Tuolumne River

September 2014 (37.83694 Degrees, -120.34500 Degrees) Jacksonville Road Bridge

As we drove into the Sierras on State Route 120 I kept catching glimpses of the Jacksonville Road Bridge (32C0057) across the Tuolumne River. This is a nine span 1441 ft long steel stringer bridge with 200 ft long river spans. The girders are made of Corten steel and the substructure is composed of eight-sided single column bents with odd tetrapod-shaped bent caps. Like the previous bridge, the deck is in 'Poor' condition despite carrying very little traffic. This bridge was built in 1970.
