Delaware Roads - Poplar St. Bridge, Laurel

Poplar Street Bridge, Laurel



Southbound at the former swing bridge.


Looking west at the central swing mechanism, which apparently still works but is almost never needed. That blue sign tells boat traffic that the bridge can be opened in an emergency, as long as you give 48 hours notice. Wait, what's the definition of "emergency" again?


Perspectives from the west side of the bridge, including a look west at a parallel railroad bridge.


Further to the east, original US 13 on its original drawbridge.

Over to old (Alt. or Bus.?) US 13
