Springfield Bridge South Elevation From Southeast

Springfield Main Street Bridge (1929), also called Willamette River Springfield Bridge, is a 3-span continuous Warren through truss bridge over the Willamette River, between Springfield and Eugene. Striking features of this bridge, constructed in 1929, are the graceful arch-shaped curvature of its polygonal top chord geometry, decorative concrete railings and entrance pylon ornamental lights. The bridge was designed by Conde B McCullough, acclaimed bridge engineer and designer of many arched bridges on the Oregon Coast Highway noted for their beauty and innovation. Other notable features: it is one of only three pre-1941 continuous truss designs, and it is the largest non-cantilever truss span in the state. Lane County, Oregon, USA.
