Yellowstone River Bridge
Yellowstone River Bridge, Historic steel bridge in Fallon, Montana.
The Yellowstone River Bridge extends 1,142 feet across the water with two continuous steel Warren truss spans featuring W-configured structural elements.
Constructed between 1943 and 1944, this bridge remained one of the few major infrastructure projects completed by Montana Highway Department during World War II.
Workers from the Crow Reservation participated in constructing concrete piers while specialized teams assembled steel trusses seventy feet above the ground.
The bridge connects communities along US Route 10, reducing travel distance by 55 miles compared to alternative routes across the Yellowstone River.
Steel shortages and high water levels during construction required specialized engineering solutions to complete this longest truss bridge in Montana.
