High Bridge, viewed from Jessamine County. In 1851, the Lexington & Danville Railroad, with Julius Adams as chief engineer, retained John A. Roebling (who later designed the Brooklyn Bridge) to build a railroad suspension bridge across the Kentucky River for a line connecting Lexington and Danville, Kentucky, west of the confluence of the Dix and Kentucky rivers.

The previous bridge at this location was a 20 feet (6.1 m) wide, two-lane Parker through truss bridge constructed in 1932. This bridge was named posthumously after newspaperman and former Speaker of the Kentucky House of Representatives Henry R. Lawrence (died 1933) of The Cadiz Record, due to his advocacy for good roads and bridges. [9]
Some bridges are measured from the beginning of the entrance ramp to the end of the exit ramp. Some are measured from shoreline to shoreline. Yet others use the length of the total construction involved in building the bridge. Since there is no standard, no ranking of a bridge should be assumed because of its position in the list.
