Moyie River Canyon Bridge, Steel truss cantilever bridge in Boundary County, Idaho
The Moyie River Canyon Bridge extends 1,223 feet across the river valley, featuring a steel truss structure that rises 424 feet above the water.
Engineers constructed this bridge in 1965 to replace an outdated 1923 structure, marking a significant upgrade for transportation infrastructure in northern Idaho.
The bridge serves as a connection point between communities along US Route 2, facilitating movement through the northern regions of Idaho near the Canadian border.
Travelers can view the bridge and river from a dedicated observation area maintained by the Idaho Department of Highways near mile marker 70.
The structure stands as the second highest bridge in Idaho, with its steel framework spanning the deep canyon carved by the Moyie River.
