Ruckel Creek Bridge

Overview

This bridge was built as a part of the Columbia River Highway in 1915. Located at MP 44.6, it was designed by highway engineer LW Metzger. Although the actual bridge is very short, the masonry guardrail makes it appear larger from the highway. It was only used for 22 years before being bypassed in 1937 as part of the Bonneville Dam relocation.
