Elizabeth Locks & Dam is one of nine navigational structures on the Monongahela River between Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Fairmont, West Virginia. Maintained and built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the gated dam forms an upstream pool that is for 23.8 miles, stretching to Charleroi, Pennsylvania.
The bridge is located at mile 23.8 of the river; it was modernized during a major reconstruction project in 1979-80.
