The Big Piney Creek Bridge is a historic bridge, carrying Arkansas Highway 123 across Big Piney Creek in Ozark-St. Francis National Forest, northeast of Hagarville, Arkansas. Its main span is a Warren through truss structure, 141feet in length, with steel deck girder approach spans giving the bridge a total length of 461feet. The trusses are mounted on concrete piers. The bridge was built in 1931, during a period of financial hardship, and was for economic reasons built with a single-lane 12feet roadway.[1]
The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
