Bridges Needing a New Home
The Iowa Department of Transportation and its local transportation partners are making available these historic bridges for reuse. Many of the bridges listed below are either listed or are eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places and are available for relocation/adoption. Proposals for their reuse should be submitted to the respective contacts below. We request serious inquiries only.
In some cases, Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) funds can be used to aid in the relocation/adoption of historic bridges.

TAP funds are allocated on a competitive basis and applicants are advised to know TAP requirements and verify the scope of the project before planning to use TAP funds.
