Converted Railroad Bridge at the Clinton Presidential Center

The Bridge has to keep its center span up for river traffic.  You can see the ramp built to allow walking and riding across.

People on the bridge.

Arkansas River looking east from the bridge.

You can see the slope of the ramp going across the bridge.
There is a unused Railroad bridge crossing the Arkansas River on the Clinton Center grounds.  It just opened for crossing recently so I took a walk across.  Unlike the railroad bridge to the west of the Center you can walk or ride across without having to use stairs or an elevator to get from one level to the next.  If you walk or bike across to North Little Rock you can follow the path west to the Big Dam Bridge cross back over to Little Rock and follow the path east back to the Clinton Center.  The entire loop is 12 miles.
