Carrying UNNAMED ROAD over STROUBLES CREEK
STROUBLES CREEK BRIDGE #2, Montgomery, Virginia
Inventory: FHWA NBI 2024 · last ETL August 2026
FHWA NBI record, refreshed with each annual release.
UNNAMED ROAD in Montgomery, Virginia sits above 37% of rated Virginia bridges on inventory load rating (37 t), while its 1945 build year is earlier than 78% of Montgomery's recorded-year cohort (196 bridges).
UNNAMED ROAD in Montgomery, Virginia is rated Fair in the FHWA's 2024 National Bridge Inventory. Built in 1945, it carries 3 rated components on the inspecting agency's 0-9 scale, and its weakest reported component scores 5. The lowest applicable rating sets the federal condition category, so this Fair result describes the weakest reported component rather than the structure as a whole. No NBI category is a closure decision or a live crossing-safety verdict.
