The Cannon Creek Bridge is a historic bridge in rural western Madison County, Arkansas. The bridge is located southeast of Durham, carrying County Road 5340 across Cannon and Coon Creeks. It is a curving concrete deck structure with an overall length of about 103feet and a deck width of 20feet. Built in 1929 to carry Arkansas Highway 16, it is the only known surviving curved concrete deck bridge in the state. It was bypassed by the present alignment of Highway 16 in the 1980s.[1]
The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.
