Lewis and Clark Bridge, Cantilever road bridge between Longview, Washington and Rainier, Oregon, United States.
The steel Lewis and Clark Bridge stretches 8,288 feet across the Columbia River, incorporating advanced engineering techniques from the early twentieth century.
Joseph Strauss, the engineer of the Golden Gate Bridge, designed this structure that opened on March 29, 1930, connecting two states across the Columbia River.
The National Register of Historic Places listed this bridge in 1982, recognizing its contribution to the development of regional transportation infrastructure.
The bridge accommodates over 20,000 vehicles daily, providing a critical transportation link between Washington and Oregon for both commercial and personal travel.
Recent restoration work in July 2023 required a complete closure, leading to a 1.4 million dollar project that finished ahead of schedule.
