Parkland in Broward County, Florida — The American South (South Atlantic)
Covered Bridge
City of Parkland
City Commissioners Maryjane Sexton and Bobbi Pugliese wanted something attractive and in keeping with a country setting in Parkland's developing suburban environment.
With the park ultimately deeded to the City on October 18, 1989, the covered bridge sits at Parkland's Covered Bridge Park as the identifying landmark that it was originally intended to be. With its expansion in 2022, the park is easily accessible from Holmberg Road or Hillsboro Boulevard via a paved trail that connects Covered Bridge Park with Six Acre Wood Park.
Erected 2003 by City of Parkland and the Parkland Historical Society.
