The Dey Road Bridge is a historic truss bridge that spans the Tiffin River near the city of Defiance, Ohio, United States. Built in the 1900s, it has been designated a historic site. In 1835, an early toll bridge across the Tiffin was built at the nearby community of Brunersburg, but it was soon destroyed by a flood.〔''(History of Defiance County, Ohio )''. Chicago: Warner, Beers, and Company, 1883, 105.〕 The current bridge is a Pratt through truss bridge that was manufactured by the Massillon Bridge Company and built in 1906.〔 Built on concrete supports,〔(Dey Road Bridge ), Ohio Historical Society, 2007. Accessed 2012-12-17.〕 it is constructed primarily of iron. In 1907, it became a local landmark for surveying purposes when a USGS surveyor placed a benchmark on its northwestern abutment.〔United States Geological Survey. ''(Bulletin - United States Geological Survey )''. Washington: USGS, 1917, 120.〕 In 1999, the bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its historically significant engineering. By that time, the bridge was vacant and not in use.〔 Now known as the "Old Dey Bridge", the bridge is closed to road traffic, although pedestrians are still permitted to use it.〔(Around the Area ), Defiance Development and Visitors Bureau, 2012-10-17. Accessed 2012-12-17.〕 The bridge is one of several locations included as points of interest on a proposed Defiance city strategic plan.〔(City of Defiance Strategic Plan and 2030 Land Use Plan ), City of Defiance, 2011-03, 21.
