Comments

• Article should use a combination of the current infobox and {{infobox bridge}}, see Benton City – Kiona Bridge for an example. - done (although infobox is not a GA criteria).
• The way your noting pages in line is incorrect. I would suggest moving the NHRP reference to a "works cited" then cite page numbers inside ref tags. - done
• "The bridge receives an average of $30,000 per month in tolls and has $22,000 per month in expenses." - wordy -fixed
• "The bridge was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007." - why? - expanded
• Since you are using the NHRP app as a reference, no need to duplicate it in the External links section. - removed
• Things that should be included:
  • this suggests that the bridge is needing to be totally replaced - says $2 million in work needed in 2001, and replacement eventually.
  • the NBI considers the bridge Structurally Deficient. - added
  • this indicates that they were proposing to de-toll the bridge. - I saw that one too, but the states did not want to pick up the maintenance responsibility in 2001, so it never happened.
  • The article could really use some images, either of the toll booth or the bridge its self.

I could not find any images on commons. All images on Flickr were copyrighted.
