Sweetwater River Bridge, Historic steel bridge in Rancho San Diego, United States.
The Sweetwater River Bridge extends 460 feet in length and 22 feet in width, featuring a triangular framework typical of truss bridge construction.
Built in 1929 by Pacific Iron and Steel Company, the bridge initially served as a crossing point for Highway 94 until its replacement with a modern structure in 1987.
The bridge marks the entrance to San Diego National Wildlife Refuge, connecting visitors to protected habitats for endangered species and native California plants.
Visitors can access the bridge from Singer Lane off Highway 94, where a small parking area provides space for hikers and photographers.
The structure stands independently without connection to active roads, occasionally spanning a riverbed that runs completely dry during summer months.
