Description
The Bridgeport Covered Bridge is located in Bridgeport, Nevada County, California, southwest of French Corral and north of Lake Wildwood. It is used as a pedestrian crossing over the South Yuba River. The bridge was designed by David Ingefield Wood, and built in 1862. Its lumber came from Plum Valley in Sierra County, California. The bridge was closed to traffic in 2010 and pedestrians in 2011 due to deferred maintenance and structural problems.
The Bridgeport Covered Bridge has the longest clear span of any surviving covered bridge in the world. Also at the site is an Old Barn and Shell Gas Station
