The 50-foot (15 m) Mynard Road Bridge was the longest of its engineering type remaining in the state of Nebraska when the historic inventory was done in 1992, and was still used for vehicular traffic at that time. The bridge was originally situated on the Maynard Road and was built to span an unnamed stream, 4.7 mi (7.6 km) southeast of Louisville, Nebraska. In 2000, the bridge was relocated to be used as a pedestrian bridge at the Lee G. Simmons Conservation Park and Wildlife Safari.
