Arthur A. Smith Covered Bridge was modestly damaged by a hurricane in what year?
Arthur A. Smith Covered Bridge The Arthur A. Smith Covered Bridge is a historic covered bridge in Colrain, Massachusetts. It is the only Burr truss bridge in the state, and is one of a few 19th century covered bridges in the state. The bridge was built in 1869 in the Shattuckville section of Colrain, and was severely damaged during a flood in 1878. It then sat abandoned until 1896, when the town voted to rehabilitate it and moved it to its present location, spanning the North River on Lyonsville Road. The area was then known as the "Arthur A. Smith Flats", after a prominent local resident who lived in the area. The bridge was strengthened in 1920 with the addition of laminated beam arches. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. In 1991 it was taken out of service and moved to adjacent land. Following restoration work in 2005–07 it was placed back in service, and was only modestly damaged by Hurricane Irene.
