The Butts Bridge carries Butts Bridge Road over the Quinebaug River in the town of Canterbury, Connecticut. It is a well-preserved example of a Parker truss, built in 1937, late in the state's regular use of steel truss bridge designs. The bridge is also known as Bridge No. 1649 and carries an average of 2,300 vehicles per day as of 2011. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.
The Butts Bridge is located in a rural setting of southeastern Canterbury, spanning the Quinebaug River in a roughly east-west orientation. The bridge is a single-span steel Parker truss design that typifies truss bridges of the early automotive age. It is 231 feet 6 inches long, and is 31 feet between the centers of the trusses. The trusses are mounted on concrete abutments, and the roadway is supported by concrete decking.
