English: Columbus Loup River Bridge, carrying U.S. Highway 81 across the Loup River at the southern edge of Columbus, Nebraska; seen from the northwest (upstream). The Parker through truss bridge consists of seven trussed spans and two approach spans. It was built in 1932, and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The bridge currently carries two lanes of southbound traffic across the river; a bridge of more recent date carries two northbound lanes. The right pier in the middle of the photo belongs to the 1932 bridge; the left pier, to the later bridge.
