Isleton Bridge

The Isleton Bridge extends 624 feet across the Sacramento River with concrete tied arch spans and a central bascule section measuring 226 feet long.

Built in 1923 by the American Bridge Company of New York, the bridge incorporates engineering designs from the Strauss Bascule Bridge Company under Joseph Strauss's direction.

The bridge connects agricultural communities of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Delta Region, supporting local farming transportation needs for over a century.

Located on State Route 160, the bridge features two lanes with an 18-foot width and maintains a clearance of 14.8 feet above water for maritime traffic.

The structure combines concrete rainbow arch approaches with a steel Pratt through truss bascule span, representing different engineering techniques of the 1920s.
