Abstract:
The Tunkhannock Viaduct stands as a testament of the durability of concrete and the craftsmanship that went into its construction. It was a significant benefit to the region and has been seen as both an important economic gain and feat of engineering for its time. Today, the bridge is still actively contributing to the transportation industry and is in use for freight service.
