Ferry Street Bridge Detail Cantilever Sidewalk With Ornamental Lighting

Ferry Street Bridge (1950), also called Coburg Road Bridge for the road that it carries, is a two-span continuous Warren through truss steel bridge, with polygonal top chord, spanning the Willamette River. It is located near downtown Eugene, where the city’s founder Eugene Skinner once operated a ferry service. The bridge has long multi-beam concrete approach spans, accounting for the flood plain and floodway corresponding to the river hydrology. The bridge was constructed in 1950 – replacing its predecessor from 1876 – and was extensively rehabilitated in 1999 by Mowat Construction Company. Notable features are its mid-span pier (mid river), supporting a continuous truss, ornamental lighting, and separated pedestrian/bicycle walkways on both sides, supported by curved cantilever sidewalk brackets. Lane County, Oregon, USA.
