Indiana Adopt A Bridge
« on: November 22, 2010, 05:43:48 PM »

Found this in today's USA TODAY:

http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2010-11-22-bridges22_ST_N.htm

Do other states do this?  Who owns the bridge, the state or the adopter?

The adopter usually ends up owning the bridge - some states require that it be transported to private property at that time.  Michigan has a Historic Bridge Park.
