Fredericktown Bridge (Old US 150)

Fredericktown Bridge

The Fredericktown Bridge formerly carried US Route 150 over Beech Fork in Fredericktown, Kentucky.


The Fredericktown Bridge was constructed in 1909 by the Champion Bridge Company of Wilmington, Ohio 1 and was bypassed in 1957. On October 1, 2013, the crossing was closed to automobile traffic over the deterioration of the wood bridge deck. 2
