It may not look like much, but this modest pedestrian bridge in Gypsum has quite a history. It was initially located over Interstate 25 in Denver and a community effort brought it to Gypsum following a fatal pedestrian accident in 1992.

The modest makeover underway at the Gypsum Creek pedestrian bridge along U.S. Highway 6 in Gypsum probably draws only passing interest from passing motorists.
It will, of course, improve the visuals along Gypsum’s most-traveled roadway by removing aged chain link fencing in favor of more aesthetically pleasing steel handrails. The bridge has already been painted to match the nearby railroad underpass, covering up its faded green exterior.
