Leimert Bridge, Cement and steel arch bridge in Oakmore neighborhood, Oakland, California.

Leimert Bridge is a cement and steel arch bridge in Oakland's Oakmore neighborhood, spanning 357 ft (109 m) across Sausal Creek at a height of 117 ft (36 m). Its single arch carries the roadway between the canyon walls, with the Dimond Canyon trails passing directly beneath the span.

Walter H. Leimert, a realtor, built the Leimert Bridge to open up the Oakmore Heights area for development; it was completed in 1926. George Posey, who also designed the Posey Tube between Oakland and Alameda, was its designer. At completion it was the largest single-span bridge on the West Coast, a title it held until the 360 ft span of Bixby Creek Bridge opened in 1932. The city designated it an Oakland landmark in 1980.

The bridge represents the early 20th-century development of Oakland's residential areas and became a City of Oakland landmark in 1980.

Dimond Canyon's multi-use trails pass directly beneath the span; reach them from the Dimond Canyon Trail off El Centro Ave or the Old Cañon Trail off Benevides Ave. The bridge itself carries Park Boulevard, so walkers and drivers cross it rather than climb to it.

The Park Boulevard #18 streetcar left the Key System network to cross the bridge, linking Oakmore with central Oakland until the late 1940s. Its overhead power lines were then converted to street lighting, so the route's electrical hardware still hangs above the roadway.
