A bridge connecting Mont Clare and Phoenixville via Bridge Street (PA Route 29). The bridge is on the site of a historical ford. The first bridge, a wooden covered bridge, was built in 1844 and burned down in 1912. From 1913 to 1916 there was a temporary wooden bridge. In 1916 a concrete arch bridge opened and remained in service until 1996. The present bridge reused the piers of the 1916 bridge and opened in 1997. The bridge carries two lanes of traffic, a bike lane, and a pedestrian sidewalk.
