[2] The Carrollton bridge is 140 feet 9 inches (42.90 m) long and 16 feet (4.9 m) wide, with Burr trusses using multiple Kingpost trusses for a clear span, the second longest among West Virginia's surviving covered bridges.

After the bridge was declared unsafe in 1962, the wood decking was replaced by a concrete deck, one lane wide with a sidewalk, supported by concrete piers and abutments, no longer a clear span.

[3][4] The bridge was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 4, 1981.

[6] The bridge was restored using a mixture of salvaged and new timber by West Virginia Division of Highways crews in 2022.
