[2] Constructed in 1918, the 91-foot (28 m) span is one of only seven remaining covered bridges in Oregon that were built before 1920.

[3] Located along Hayden Road just south of Oregon Route 34, the bridge was either partly or completely rebuilt in 1945.

Narrow openings under the side-wall eaves on both sides of the span illuminated the interior.

The department developed plans for Howe-truss bridges, partly because they were relatively easy to assemble, and distributed them to the state's counties.
