Notes
  • Significance: The Sand Bar Ferry Bridge on South Carolina Route 28 over the Savannah River linking Aiken County, South Carolina and Richmond County, Georgia is an example of one of the early metal truss bridges designed by the South Carolina Highway Department in 1920-1921 built by the Virginia Bridge and Iron Company of Roanoke, Virginia in 1922. This bridge is the only remaining metal truss bridge in South Carolina with Pratt rigid deck trusses and only one of two remaining bridges with Warren rigid deck trusses. It is the only known combination highway bridge of its type in either Georgia or South Carolina.
