It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. It is located in the Kise Mill Bridge Historic District.[1]

In 2014, the bridge was repaired from so many years of use. Due to its historical significance, it could not be replaced. The project took nearly 3 years to complete, and because of it the historical landmark will be fully functional for decades to come.[3]
