Canal Greenway -1991
The Canal Greenway-covered bridge built-in 1991 spans an irrigation ditch off of the South Fork of Licking River of the Canal Greenway Trail in Licking County, Ohio. The town lattice bridge measures 71 feet and is only 8 feet wide and is open only to pedestrians.
The Ohio Canal Greenway extends south from Hebron on an old Penn Central Railroad right-of-way. Farm fields border the trail on the west, while remnants of the historic Ohio and Erie Canal are to the east.
Birdwatchers and other fans of wildlife will want to stop in at the Hebron State Fish Hatchery just south of Interstate 70 along the trail's route. A wooden-truss-covered bridge built-in 1992 spans an irrigation ditch across Canal Road from the facility. Here a larger adjacent waterway begins, continuing south along the trail until its end at State Route 79.
