It has needed few major repairs beyond a new standing-seam metal roof fitted under a state grant. A 1990s Vermont Agency of Transportation study found details of its trusses allowed an unusually high 9-ton rating for a wooden bridge. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
