Frog Bayou Bridge
The Frog Bayou Bridge is a historic bridge in Crawford County, Arkansas, just south of Mountainburg. It is a single-span steel Parker through truss, which formerly carried Arkansas Highway 282 across Frog Bayou, a tributary of the Arkansas River. The bridge is now closed to traffic, and is located at the southern end of Silver Bridge Road. The bridge has a span of 150 feet (46 m) and a total structure length of 209 feet (64 m), and rests on abutments of stone and concrete. The northern approach to the bridge also includes a stone and concrete pier. The bridge was built in 1942.[2]
