Germantown Township Bridge S-29

[1] The Germantown Township Bridge is located in rural southeastern Turner County, about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) southwest of Chancellor.

It carries 278th Street, a rural paved road, across an unnamed stream between 459th and 460th Avenues.

A headwall rises above the arches on each side, about 10 inches (25 cm) above road grade, and extends into angled wing walls.

The county administration was able to build stone bridges at a lower cost than then-conventional steel beam bridges because of the availability of experienced stone workers, and the federal subsidy to the wages they were paid.

The county was responsible for supervising the work crews and providing the building materials.
