The Riparius Bridge is a two lane truss bridge that carries NY-8 across the Hudson River connecting Johnsburg, New York with Chester, New York. It was built in 2003, replacing a similar style camelback truss bridge that had been built in 1919. The new bridge was built to better accommodate vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians.[1]
