Ellston Street aerial picture
This is/was a narrow bridge structure over Ellston Street. The road deck was barely wide enough for the travel lanes, so shoulders weren't happening here. With this stretch of the interstate being widened, these bridge structures will be rehabbed or replaced. New pictures have a grey background under the caption.
