Английская Википедия:Holmes Street Bridge
The Holmes Street Bridge, also known the Holmes Street Pedestrian Bridge, Old Shakopee Bridge, or Bridge 4175,[1] is a historic truss bridge over the Minnesota River in Shakopee, Minnesota, United States. It is one of the state's only examples of a deck truss bridge. It was constructed in 1927 with parts manufactured by the Minneapolis Steel & Machinery Company. The bridge formerly carried US 169 and MN 101,[1] and served as the principal river crossing for Shakopee. The Holmes Street Bridge was closed to vehicular traffic in 2005.[2] It was rehabilitated in 2011 to carry a trail for pedestrians, cross-country skiers, and snowmobiles.[3]
Description
The Holmes Street Bridge is Шаблон:Convert long and Шаблон:Convert wide. The bridge has four spans over the river and two approach spans over land on either end. The load-bearing structure consists of three parallel Warren trusses, an unusual configuration as two parallel trusses were the norm. Neoclassical elements appear on the bridge piers, abutments, and parapet railings.[2]
History
The bridge was built to carry Minnesota State Highway 5, locally known within Shakopee as Holmes Street. The route was later redesignated U.S. Route 169/State Highway 101. In 2009 a new bridge was built a block to the east to carry the highways.[2]
A study from 1985 had identified only 10 deck truss bridges built in Minnesota before 1946. The Holmes Street Bridge is the only road bridge of that number still standing.[2]
The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010 for its state-level significance in the theme of engineering.[4] It was nominated for its rare design type and its fabrication by an important Minnesota bridge manufacturer.[2]
