The Foxburg Bridge carries PA 58 over the Allegheny River between Armstrong County, Pennsylvania and Clarion County, Pennsylvania in Foxburg, Pennsylvania, USA.

History

[edit]

The new bridge was completed alongside the old Foxburg Bridge which was demolished to allow the pedestrian walkway to be added.[1] The project began in 2007 and was due to end in 2009 but the bridge opened to traffic ahead of schedule. The cost of the project was $10.1 million.
