Lincoln Highway Bridge
Lincoln Highway Bridge, Historic wooden bridge in Dugway Proving Ground, United States.
The Lincoln Highway Bridge spans Government Creek with a wooden structure measuring 14.5 by 11.5 feet, supported by log beams and stone abutments.
Constructed in 1900 by Utah State Prison laborers, this bridge served as part of the first proposed alignment of the transcontinental Lincoln Highway.
The bridge represents early American transportation infrastructure and received National Register of Historic Places designation in May 1975.
Access to the bridge requires specific military clearance as it stands within the restricted area of Dugway Proving Ground military testing facility.
The structure remains the sole surviving element of the original proposed national highway route between Salt Lake City and Ely, Nevada.
