Turners Falls Road Bridge

The Turners Falls Road Bridge (officially White Bridge) is a concrete and steel road bridge over the Connecticut River in the U.S. state of Massachusetts. It carries Turners Falls Road and connects the town center of Greenfield and the village of Turners Falls (in the town of Montague).
== History ==
The current bridge is the second on this site. Previously, a suspension bridge constructed in 1871 and known as the "Lower Suspension Bridge" was located at the site. The old bridge was constructed with funds from the towns of Greenfield and Montague and cost about $36,000.〔(P.S. Miller and K.J. Scott, ''Montague'' ), (Arcadia, 2000)〕 A road connecting the bridge to Greenfield center was laid out by the following year.〔(F.M. Thompson, L.J.C. Kellogg, and C.S. Severance, ''History of Greenfield'' ), (T. Morey and Son, 1954)〕 The bridge was constructed primarily to allow laborers in Greenfield to easily go to the newly developing village of Turners Falls.〔 The previous bridge was severely damaged in the 1936 flood and the current bridge was constructed soon after.〔
In the 1920s, Route 2 (former New England Route 7) originally left Greenfield via Turners Falls Road, crossing the old suspension bridge into the village of Turners Falls. Route 2 left Turners Falls via Millers Falls Road. In 1932, a more modern bridge capable of handling the increased automobile traffic, the French King Bridge, opened further upstream and Route 2 was relocated to its modern alignment along French King Highway.〔(Massachusetts Highway Department, French King Bridge )〕 The former alignment through Turners Falls was designated as Route 2A. The Route 2A designation remained on Turners Falls Road until the 1960s.〔Topographic maps show the Route 2A still marked in 1954. A 1972 map no longer shows Route 2A through Turners Falls.〕
The Massachusetts Highway Department started a rehabilitation project in 2010, which is, as of May 2015, almost done.〔(MassHighway project page )〕
