Ellsworth Street Bridge, Road bridge in Albany, United States
Description
The Ellsworth Street Bridge is a road bridge spanning the Willamette River in Albany, Oregon. It uses steel truss supports to cross the waterway and carries eastbound traffic on U.S. Route 20.
History
The bridge was built in 1925 by the Union Bridge Company based in Portland. It succeeded several earlier river crossings at this location and represented contemporary engineering practices in Oregon.
Culture
The bridge structure includes concrete railings and entrance pylons designed by Conde McCullough, reflecting the engineering standards of early 20th century Oregon.
Practical
The bridge is straightforward to cross on foot or by bicycle and offers views of the river from above. Crossing can be slower during peak traffic times.
