The Cades Mill Covered Bridge, built in 1862, is the oldest covered bridge in Indiana still in its original location. SSRG restored this historic bridge to its former glory with the level of detail that you wish for as an engineer. SSRG did an exemplary job and are responsible for this bridge being in existence for the next 100 or more years.
