State Road Covered Bridge
State Road Bridge is a covered bridge spanning Conneaut Creek in Monroe Township, Ashtabula County, Ohio, United States. The bridge, one of currently 17 drivable bridges in the county, is a single span Town truss design. Constructed of 97,000 feet of southern pine and oak, it features a 4-foot-tall window which extends the length of the bridge.
This bridge was constructed in 1983. The 152-foot Town lattice span was the first covered bridge designed and built by County Engineer John Smolen, Jr.
The original covered bridge was built in 1831, by Ira Benton, and David Niles, for a cost of $100. The bridge stood until 1898.
The dedication of the bridge in 1983 was the forerunner of the Ashtabula County Covered Bridge Festival.
