Wooddale Bridge was originally a Town lattice truss covered bridge built about 1850. It was rehabilitated in 1939, when steel beams were added, and was destroyed by flood in 1981, after which a steel Acrow bridge was placed there. A replacement Town lattice truss covered bridge was completed in 2008 through a project involving engineering and project management by Delaware DOT, general contracting by Mumford and Miller Concrete, Inc., timber framing by Pocopson Industries, Inc., and stone masonry by Stonescapes, Inc. The bridge was dedicated to the residents of Wooddale and the local community, whose involvement and support made the project possible.
