Photograph used for a story in the Oklahoma City Times newspaper. Caption: "Old and new side-by-side. Three and a half years ago the people of Oklahoma County agreed to share the cost of three new bridges across the Canadian River. About the first of May the fruits of their effort will become a reality. The State Highway Commission has indicated the first of Twin bridges that span the Canadian and May Avenue will be open to traffic in about two months. The second part of the span will open a couple of months later. The existing bridge, now closed to traffic, will be dismantled. When completed, the two-lane May Avenue bridge will carry one-way traffic across the river. The bridge - along with two others - were approved by county voters in a $5,985,000 bond issue in the fall of 1957. The other bridges, now in use, span the river at S Pennsylvania and S Agnew. County residents are contributing 25 percent of the cost of the May Avenue bridge, the state 25 percent and the federal government 50 percent."
