This Pratt truss is located on Loudoun County's Route 673 (Featherbed Lane) north of Waterford, Virginia. Standing on the bridge as an SUV rumbled across, I was startled by the amount of rattling. The bridge visibly vibrated for a good 15-20 seconds after the vehicle cleared the bridge. The bridge underwent a major refurbishment in the early 2020s.
