Big Creek Bridge, Road bridge in Lane County, United States.
The Big Creek Bridge stretches 589 feet across Big Creek Canyon, featuring two main spans of open spandrel arches measuring 178 feet in length.
Engineer Conde McCullough designed this concrete tied-arch bridge in 1931 as part of the Oregon Coast Highway development connecting California to Washington.
The bridge earned recognition in the National Register of Historic Places for its engineering excellence and contribution to the Pacific Northwest transportation network.
The 24-foot-wide bridge deck carries two lanes of traffic on US Route 101, positioned 65 feet above the canyon floor for safe passage.
Construction workers transported 45,000 sacks of cement using wooden frameworks, platforms, and slings before modern machinery became standard practice.
