Overheads for WV 2 and OH 7 approaching the St. Marys bridge. At one time there was not a bridge here, but a ferry that carried Alternate US 50. The alternate route ran from Belpre, Ohio, through Marietta and Newport along existing OH 7 and it crossed the river via ferry, connecting with the mainline US 50 near Ellenboro and using the route of existing WV 16 to get there.
