Ciénega Bridge, Concrete arch bridge in Pima County, Arizona
The Ciénega Bridge spans 278 feet across Ciénega Creek and the Union Pacific Railroad tracks with five concrete spans and twin tapered ribs.
The Arizona Highway Department completed the construction of Ciénega Bridge in March 1921 at a cost of 40,000 dollars after taking over from the initial contractor.
The bridge represents early 20th-century transportation infrastructure development in Arizona, earning its place on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
Visitors need to obtain a parking permit from Pima County Parks & Recreation at least two business days before accessing the bridge area.
The structure provides an observation point for approximately 40 daily trains, including double-stack containers, military units, and Amtrak's Sunset Limited service.
