| Of those pictured here, this bridge appears to be in the worst condition. Wood reinforcements have apparently been put in place to add support to the structure. Concrete appears heavily pitted. This bridge does not get heavy traffic. It connects East Broadway to Joyland Road. |

County Bridge 285 |
Bridgeville |
August 9, 2007 |
| The abutment of this bridge, located in the hamlet of Bridgeville, near Exit 108 on Bridgeville Road (old Route 17), is constructed directly against the abutment of what is reported to have been the first covered bridge in New York State. It is unclear what impact, if any, this may have on the stress the current bridge's foundation will bear; especially is ice is able to form between the two, or if the old structure is receding or moving to any extent. (See Bridgeville history page and an article that I wrote on Wikipedia.) |
