Beebe Bridge, Road bridge over Columbia River in Chelan, United States

Beebe Bridge is a two-lane steel through-arch bridge crossing the Columbia River at Chelan Falls, three miles east of Lake Chelan. It carries U.S. Route 97 between Chelan and Douglas counties, is 1,040 feet long with a 26-foot deck and 3-foot sidewalks, and is one of three continuous-steel through-truss tied-arch bridges in Washington. The bridge crosses the river at about 45 degrees.

The Beebe Orchard Company built the first bridge here in 1919, a reinforced-concrete tower suspension bridge designed by M. Muster of Seattle and erected by MacRea Brothers in ten weeks. It carried two 12-inch irrigation flumes and a 12-foot wooden roadway, and its tolls helped recoup the pipeline cost. The state began the current steel bridge in 1959; it opened in June 1963, and the old span was dismantled, leaving its concrete towers in place.

The bridge supported the growth of Washington's agricultural industry by connecting orchards on both sides of the Columbia River for fruit transportation.

The bridge carries two lanes of U.S. Route 97 with 3-foot sidewalks on either side. It is the only Columbia River crossing between Wenatchee and Brewster, so traffic is steady; pedestrians share the narrow walkways with passing vehicles. The span crosses the river at roughly a 45-degree angle, and the concrete pylons of the 1919 suspension bridge stand just downstream.

The 1919 suspension bridge was the first suspension bridge in Washington State and, at the time, the largest privately built and owned bridge in the world, costing $75,000. Its designer was M. Muster of Seattle and the MacRea Brothers built it in ten weeks. The concrete towers, up to 45 metres tall, still stand downstream; the western one now rises from the riverbed of Lake Entiat.
