Ravenswood Bridge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ravenswood Bridge is a two-lane cantilever bridge in the United States, connecting Ravenswood, West Virginia and rural Meigs County, Ohio, across the Ohio River. The 900-foot (275 m) bridge was completed in 1981^[1] as part of a state-bill economic plan to replace narrow two-lane roads in southeastern Ohio with modern, wider roads.^{[citation needed]}

This was an isolated crossing connecting a winding two-lane Ohio highway to Ravenswood. In 2003, the U.S. 33 bypass in Meigs County was completed and today carries a relocated US 33 that stretches from the bridge to Pomeroy, Ohio.
