Notes
  • Significance: The Georgia DOT Bridge #047-00820F-00347E, or commonly known as Government Bridge, is important to the local history of the community of Ringgold. It was originally part of the approach road system to the Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park. Catoosa County agreed to take over the jurisdiction of the road and the bridge from the National Park Service, if the Park improved the road. Road improvements included the construction of the bridge. Structurally, the rubble masonry substructure and masonry abutments are unique for the local area. Historically, the bridge is one of the few built in Georgia in 1935 since state politics put little emphasis on transportation improvements.
