This bridge is part of a group of bridges in rural Renville County that cross the Minnesota River. Unlike many of those bridges, this one is relatively new, and as a result, it is a prestressed concrete girder bridge rather than a steel girder bridge that was popular in the 1960s. The distinguishing features include piers made up of concrete columns, large concrete blocks at the end of the guardrails, and the bridge being located on a gravel road.

The traffic count of 35 vehicles a day is an indicator of just how lonely this bridge must be. At 35 per day, this is 12,775 a year, or 120,775 in the decade that this bridge was built. In comparison, the I-35W bridge sees more cars crossing in a day than what this bridge has seen since it was opened in 1998.
