The Spring Common Bridge, a steel through arch crossing, carries Mahoning Avenue over the Mahoning River in Youngstown, Ohio.

Designed by Wilbur J. Watson & Associates of Cleveland, Ohio, the Spring Common Bridge replaced a c. 1911 Warren deck truss crossing. 1 The new bridge featured a main through arch span over the Mahoning River, a through plate girder span over the railroad, and a concrete span over Front Street.

Spring Common Bridge was extensively rehabilitated in 2008. 1
