Bridge 13 is an historic structure that met its end on the Shelbyville roadways.  But history called for its saving, not destruction, as Bridge 219 was constructed in its place.

That brought about the bridge’s rebuild and now it serves as a part of the Shelbyville trail system in the Blue River Park.

Shelby County commissioner Kevin Nigh says the engineering effort resulted in some special recognition.

The award was presented Thursday evening.
