Heavy Loads Take the Life Out of Bridges

Many bridges were not designed to handle modern agriculture's heavy
loads. A load heavier than a bridge is designed to carry shortens its
service life and can cause visible and hidden damage. The result can
be tragic.
Black Hawk County inspects all its bridges on a regular schedule to keep
our bridges as safe as possible. Please consider avoiding bridges when planning to move heavy loads.
