Sauvie Island Bridge Replacement Span (renamed Wapato Bridge in 2023).
The new Sauvie Island Bridge was assembled in Portland and floated down the Willamette River and Multnomah Channel, then guided into position alongside the old 1950 bridge on December 28, 2007. The original Parker truss bridge (green paint, background) built in 1950 with a 200ft (61m) main span, was replaced with this tied-arch design with a 360ft (110m) span, after cracks were discovered in 2001. The new bridge was opened in 2008. The bridge was renamed Wapato Bridge in 2023. Contractor: Max J Kuney Construction Company; Owner: Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). Portland Oregon USA.
