Does anyone know the history of this bridge? Is it on an old alignment of K-177?

It was already bypassed by 1936: http://www.ksdot.org/burtransplan/maps/PastPublishedCounty/morris1936.PDF http://www.ksdot.org/burtransplan/maps/PastPublishedCounty/morris1953.PDF

Fucking weird.

Incidentally, http://www.historicmapworks.com/Map/US/61528/Township+15+South++Range+8+East++Kelso/Morris+County+1923/Kansas/ shows it before it was bypassed by the current highway.
