[3] The Montgomery Covered Bridge is located in a rural area north of the town center of Waterville, a short way east of Vermont Route 109 on Montgomery Road, a dead-end road providing access to a single farm property.

The trusses include iron roads between the peaks of the diagonal bracing and the bottom chords.

The bridge is covered by a metal roof, and its exterior is finished in vertical board siding, which extends around to the insides of the portals.

[4] In 1969 a large snowstorm deposited 5 feet (2 m) of snow, concentrated more on one side of the roof than the other, which induced a lean.

In 1971 an asphalt truck fell through the deck into the river below (luckily with only minor injuries to the driver).
