It spans the boundary between the Añasco Arriba barrio in the municipality of Añasco and the Sabanetas barrio in the municipality of Mayagüez. The bridge bears a striking similarity to the Puente de Trujillo Alto, another Pennsylvania through truss bridge built during 1939–1941 in the Trujillo Alto municipality of Puerto Rico.
It may be Bridge No. 75 described in a review of historic bridges in Puerto Rico, which is a single span Pennsylvania through truss railroad bridge built over the Añasco River in 1944.[3]
