Los Angeles County, California Bridges: State Route 134 Bridges across the Los Angeles River

August 1999 (34.1531 Degrees, -118.2791 Degrees) Los Angles River Bridges

After flowing under the I-5 (Golden State) and SR-134 (Ventura) Freeways the Los Angeles River makes a sharp turn to the south. In this photo we are looking back north at two SR-134 bridges across the L.A. River with the rugged Verdugo Mountains behind them. In the front is the Los Angeles River Bridge and Overhead (53 1790), a 14-span continuous concrete box girder bridge on pier walls with columns on top. Behind it is the West 134/5 Connector Bridge and Overhead (53 1790H), a 27-span continuous concrete box girder bridge on pier walls with columns on top. Both bridges were built in 1967 and were seismically retrofitted in 1993.
