The bridge crosses the Indian Creek, a tributary of the Cedar River, in Linn County.

It was designed and built by the Wrought Iron Bridge Company (WIBCO) of Canton, Ohio as an eight-panel pin-connected through truss in an unusual double-intersection Pratt design.

Including the approach spans, the bridge has a total length of 191 feet (58 m).

The bridge features decorative cresting and lattice lateral bracing.

The truss uses rigid horizontal and vertical members and rod bracing for the diagonals.
