It has five pin-connected truss spans. The three center spans are Baltimore through trusses each long. The longer span on the Fort Benton bank is a -long Camelback through truss bridge built after a 1908 flood destroyed a cantilevered swing span and its central pier. The shortest span is a Pratt through truss Pratt truss which is long, on the far side from Fort Benton.
