On the Allegheny Highlands Trail segment of the Great Allegheny Passage
in Somerset County, PA. This historic 135-year-old cast-iron Bollman bridge
once carried the B&O railroad over Wells Creek. It has been moved to carry
the Great Allegheny Passage over Scratch Hill Rd. The approaches to the
bridge are still under construction, and the trail community eagerly anticipates
the finishing touches.
