The Klondike Bridge is located southwest of Larchwood, Iowa, United States.
[2] The bridge was first constructed at this point in 1901, but it proved inadequate to handle the traffic that followed, so in 1913 Lyon County hired the Western Bridge and Omaha Construction Company to create the Klondike.
[3] The Iowa Legislature passed the Brockway Act that required counties to use Iowa State Highway Commission (ISHC) standards for bridge construction rather than the counties acting on their own in 1913.
It is in this transition period that the Lyon County Board of Supervisors decided to replace an outdated 1901 span at this location.
