The Natchez Trace originally linked Nashville with Natchez, Mississippi. The current Natchez Trace Parkway also links the two, but does not follow the exact route.
In the early 1990s. construction of the Natchez Trace Parkway Bridge (above) began. Stretching over 1600 feet, the arched bridge spans Hwy 96 between Nashville and Franklin and is over 150 feet high. It's interesting to note that it was the first bridge in North America to be constructed of precast concrete segments.
Opened to traffic in 1994, the bridge has won over 15 design awards.
