The Whitney County Bridge is the county's main bridge that provides transportation access to and from the industrial area as well as more of a direct route to both the cities of Riverside and Fairfield. It is a minor location and the first chapter's main crescendo event in the DLC Crash Course in Left 4 Dead.

History
The bridge is part of a highway that crosses a river and allows vehicles to proceed to and from the town of Riverside. The bridge type design used is a truss bridge that is only two vehicle lanes wide however due to the frequent amount of heavy trucks and vehicles passing by the industrial area, the bridge is most likely reinforced to help accommodate for the extra stress and weight. Just a few miles up the bank, another bridge can be seen however it is a railway bridge used by trains to carry freight to and from the area as well.

Current Status
When the quarantine of the city of Fairfield failed, refugees headed towards the military outpost at the town of Riverside. The military setup a small outpost near the bridge to help evacuate the civilians, roads were barricaded off, sandbags and spot-lights were setup, and a flatbed truck armed with a minigun and howitzer. Once the remaining civilian vehicles entered the bridge, the military closed off the main road with the barricade to stop the infection and protect the civilians, however buses at the other end crashed and blocked the road preventing any of the remaining refugees from escaping causing them to become infected.
