Casselman River Bridge State Park
Casselman River Bridge is currently being repaired. The state park will remain closed for the duration of the repair.
The Maryland Department of Natural Resources was awarded a TAP (Transportation Alternatives Program) SHA-Federal-Aid Grant to supplement funding to restore the Casselman River Bridge. These additional funds will help the Department to fulfil one of its mission statement objectives, which is to preserve the State’s historic resources. Casselman River is a popular location for fishing and is stocked by the Department of Natural Resources. Anglers can still access the river to fish at locations outside of the state park. Casselman River Bridge State Park is a 4-acre parcel, popular for picnicking, fly fishing and photography. When the 80-foot span was erected in 1813, it was the longest single-span stone arch bridge in the United States and served as an important link on the National Road from 1813 to 1933. Although the bridge no longer carries vehicular traffic, it is open to pedestrians and is accessible for disabled visitors.
