Geocache Description:

a couple of people thought this was a little harder then a P&G so I upped it to a 2 for difficulty

County Road over Unnamed Stream
1.5 Miles Southwest of Nebraska City
Otoe County, Nebraska
Total Length: 28 ft.
Roadway Width: 13.8 ft.
1-Span, Concrete Filled Spandrel Arch
BUILT: 1912 by the Kimballton Construction Company

This small-scale concrete bridge carries a gravel-surfaced county road over a small unnamed watercourse southwest of Nebraska City. The structure dates to 1912. On February 6, the Otoe County Commissioners awarded a contract to erect this 24-foot concrete arch to the Kimballton Construction Company of Kimballton, Iowa. The contract specified that the arch be complete with wingwalls, have 8-inch wide 3-foot high guardrails, and a 16-foot roadway width. The contractors completed the bridge that spring, and it has carried vehicular traffic since in unaltered and well-preserved condition. As one of a handful of concrete arches remaining in Otoe County, this bridge is noteworthy for its high degree of detailing and quality workmanship.
