This bridge is the downstream bridge of two bridges built between Chippewa County and Lac Qui Parle County between Montevideo and the Lac Qui Parle Dam. These two bridges were built at the same time, using the same bridge plans, resulting in identical looking bridges. Further, both bridges have been extensively rebuilt by adding new pilings, making the piers wider, adding new girders, putting on a new wider deck, and adding modern slanted guardrails.

The only differeces that I could find between the two bridges is that this one has the steel girder painted blue-grey, while the other bridge has the girders painted red-brown. Each bridge has 4 bridge plates, two for each county, and they are shown in final photo below.

The widening of the pier is visiable in the 2nd photo from the bottom. Notice that there is a small round pier at the far end of this pier, and the concrete pier cap is independent of the original H-shaped pier. This additional pier is used to support one additional bridge girder.
