Tremont Station Bridge, Pierceville Road, spanning Conrail tracks, Wareham, Plymouth County, MA

Significance: The Tremont Station Bridge is one of the oldest metal truss bridges in Massachusetts and the earliest to incorporate J.H. Linville's wide, upset-ended eyebars, a feature which would become standard in late nineteenth century pin-connected trusses. The bridge was built by an important nineteenth century bridge company, the Keystone Bridge Company. It is also of interest for its apparent original design as a railroad bridge and its later adaptation as a highway bridge.
