The Old River Bridge is a historic bridge spanning the Saline River near Benton in Saline County, Arkansas. Now closed to traffic, it formerly carried River Street in Benton across the river south of the city. It is a two-span through truss bridge, mounted on cylindrical concrete columns. It was built in 1889 along the route of the historic military road through the area, and is one of the state's oldest surviving bridges. It was taken out of service in 1974. The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. Bridge as of January, 2012
Went to this address and nothing there but a train bridge
No trespassing with video cameras. Nice river, but difficult road.
