The Rocky Ford bridge spans the Cottonwood River which bisects Lyon County North to South and feeds into the Neosho River. The bridge is a one-lane (15.5’ wide), single span, Pratt truss (trapezoidal) design, 214’ in length with a timber deck and runners supported by steel channel floor beams. Key characteristics of the design and engineering include trapezoidal shape, primary pinned connections with nuts, secondary pinned connections with keys, forged eyebars in the lower chords, forged eyebars as diagonal tension members, and built-up members of channel iron and lacing.
