Durbin Bridge

Durbin Bridge

The Durbin Bridge carries County Route 250/13 over the East Fork Greenbrier River in Durbin, West Virginia.


The Pennsylvania through truss was constructed in 1907 by the York Bridge Company. 1 It was later supported by a three-span continuous steel deck girder and four steel bents. The Durbin Bridge was closed because of structural issues on November 2, 2015, 1 and is scheduled to be demolished and not replaced based on the short existing detour and very low traffic volume.
