 Drivers cannot use the Peshekee River Bridge south of US 41 / M @-@ 28 in western Marquette County 's Michigamme Township . The structure was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999 for its engineering and architectural significance . MDOT has listed it on their Historic Bridge Inventory as " one of Michigan 's most important vehicular bridges " . It was the first bridge designed by the Michigan State Highway Department ( MSHD ) , the forerunner to MDOT , in 1914 . As the first crossing , it was designated " Trunk Line Bridge No. 1 " and served as the prototype for hundreds of similar concrete through @-@ girder bridges built in the state before the design fell out of favor in 1930 . It was bypassed by a new structure built over the Peshekee River for US 41 / M @-@ 28 and subsequently abandoned as a roadway , deteriorating in a county park .
