Built in 1930, this 110-foot bridge originated in Lane County, where it crossed the McKenzie River. Closed to crossing since 1968, this bridge was disassembled and moved in 1990 to its current site in Myrtle Creek’s Millsite Park, where it is used as a footbridge.
The historic Myrtle Creek Bridge, designed by renowned bridge engineer Conde McCullough and built in 1922, serves as a vital link between the City of Myrtle Creek and the I-5 corridor to the west. Its signature concrete arches provide visual appeal and make this bridge stand out as a unique structure in southern Oregon.
