At 296 feet (90 m) above the Hurricane creek, it is both the longest and tallest bridge on the entire Alaska Railroad.

Many of Alaska Railroad's passenger trains pass over this bridge, including the Denali Star, the Aurora Winter and the flag-stop Hurricane Turn, in addition to freight movements.

The first steel was erected in June, and the first passenger train operated on August 15 of the same year.

To build it, the company strung an aerial tram across the gulch, and construction proceeded from both sides simultaneously.
