Description
The Waitsfield Covered Bridge, also known as the Big Eddy Covered Bridge, is located in the town of Waitsfield, Vt. It crossed the Mad River just off the main road through the town of Waitsfield. Built in 1833, it is one of Vermont's oldest covered bridges. The bridge is a single span Burr truss structure, 105 ft. long. Each truss incorporates a laminated arch and laminated stringers have been added underneath the deck for added strength. The bridge is wood clad with a gabled metal roof. An unusual feature of the bridge is the pedestrian sidewalk that accompanies the main bridge. The Waitsfield Covered Bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
