Bridge Destroyed by Flood Near Benson on San Pedro River
A reinforced concrete bridge on the Benson Dragoon road across the San Pedro river near town collapsed last Sunday after weeks of flood damage. The wrecked span, undermined by rising water, could have been saved with a small outlay to straighten the channel and protect piers. The 27,800 dollar Topeka Bridge & Iron Co. construction, completed a year ago to replace an iron bridge, now blocks the Benson-Pomerene area, hindering local commerce and travel to the state line. The Bisbee Review notes this failure and its impact on the community.
