Carries US 97 over Crooked River
Design: arch/deck/open
Design Details: The Crooked River Gorge Bridge is the country's first segmentally cast, temporarily cable-stayed, single-span arch bridge. Kiewit Pacific Co., a subsidiary of Kiewit Corporation, used a construction methodology rarely found in the United States. Divided into 15 separate segments, the bridge was built without the use of typical falsework. Stretching 535 ft. across the Crooked River 295 ft. below, the bridge is four lanes wide with a center median, and accommodates 10,000 vehicles per day.

Carries Former U.S. 97 alignment over Crooked River
Design: arch/deck/steel
Design Details: This highway span over the Crooked River Gorge provides one of the leading points of scenic grandeur in the central portion of the state. Designed by Conde B. McCullough, this bridge is 464-feet long and consists of a 330-foot two-hinged steel braced-spandrel deck arch. The structure was one of the highest bridges in the United States (at 295-feet from deck to streambed) when it was constructed. Architectural features include an ornamental concrete bridge railing and entrance pylons. A high line cableway was used in the erection of the structure. It is located just upstream from the 1911 Oregon Trunk Railroad steel arch bridge designed by Ralph Modjeski. ODOT recently completed building a new bridge near the historic bridge.
