Spring Valley Bridge

 
IL. Rt. 81 Highway Bridge, Spring Valley, IL 61362, United States of America (IL 89)
 

Spring Valley Bridge carries a farm track over the Illinois Waterway (Illinois River) near to Oldham Cutting.

Early plans of what would become the Illinois Waterway (Illinois River) were drawn up by George Jones in 1888 but problems with Reading Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1782. The canal joined the sea near Cheltenham. In his autobiography Thomas Edwards writes of his experiences as a boatman in the 1960s
