The Judge J. Frank Graff Bridge is a truss bridge that carries U.S. Route 422 (US 422) and Pennsylvania Route 28 (PA 28) across the Allegheny River. It connects Manor Township and North Buffalo Township, Pennsylvania. It was constructed in 1974 as part of a freeway bypass of Kittanning, Pennsylvania. The structure is named for Frank Graff, an Armstrong County Court of Common Pleas Judge who later rose to become a member of the Pennsylvania Superior Court.
A local PennDOT worker by the name of Forrest Wright of Ford City PA was the first person to ever cross the Graff bridge after its completion.
