The Grave Creek Bridge is a covered bridge in Josephine County in the U.S. state of Oregon.[1] It carries Sunny Valley Loop Road over Grave Creek about 15miles north of Grants Pass and within sight of Interstate 5 (I-5).[1]
Built in 1920, it originally carried U.S. Route 99, the Pacific Highway. The only remaining covered bridge in Josephine County, it is "Oregon's most viewed covered bridge" because of its location near I-5.[2]
The structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[3] It was closed for repairs in the late 1990s and reopened in 2001.[1]
The 105feet Howe truss bridge features six Gothic windows on each side as well as rounded portals and a shake roof.[1] The original architects were A. A. Clausen and J. Elmer Nelson.[3]
