The US 64 Horsehead Creek Bridge is a historic bridge, carrying U.S. Highway 64 (US 64) across Horsehead Creek east of Hartman, Arkansas. Its two main spans are Parker pony trusses, 102 feet (31 m) in length, with steel deck girder approach spans giving the bridge a total length of 415 feet (126 m). The trusses are mounted on concrete piers, with the approaches on concrete piers and abutments. The bridge was built in 1933–34, and served as a major crossing point and transportation route until the construction of Interstate 40 (I-40) to the north.[2]
The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.[1]
