Weddle Bridge, Covered bridge in Sweet Home, Oregon, United States.
The Weddle Bridge spans 120 feet across Ames Creek in Sankey Park, featuring exposed wooden trusses and large side openings with white board-and-batten siding.
Constructed in 1937 to cross Thomas Creek, the bridge served vehicular traffic for 43 years until 1980, when a concrete structure replaced it downstream.
The structure represents a testament to community preservation efforts, as local activists and legislators worked together to prevent its demolition and secure funding for restoration.
Located within Sankey Park, the bridge provides passage for pedestrians while serving as a venue for community gatherings, celebrations, and outdoor recreational activities.
Following relocation in 1989, this Howe truss design bridge became the first project under the Oregon Covered Bridge Program, establishing a model for bridge preservation.
