The Avonmore bridge is historically famous as it was built in the 1930s but does not follow the standard plan for truss bridges seen in Pennsylvania. The entire bridge’s trusses are composed of rolled beams, which is what makes the bridge unusual and strong both in appearance and design. The bridge has two Parker through truss spans, a full-slope Pratt pony truss approach span, and a steel stringer approach span.
The bridge appears in the movie Promise Land and can be seen in this trailer.
“It’s pristine and perfect and unspoiled here, I was struck by the sight of green hills rolling against the sky” — Hal Halbrook
