Drift Creek Bridge was a covered road bridge in Lincoln County on the Oregon coast, built in 1914 to carry Drift Creek County Road over Drift Creek near the Pacific. Once part of the main coastal route, it was a Howe truss with board-and-batten siding, arched portals, and ribbon windows. After a concrete bypass replaced it in the 1960s, the county preserved it for pedestrians and as a tribute to the region’s nineteenth-century pioneers. Closed in 1988 because of severe decay, it was dismantled in 1997 and removed from the National Register in 1998. Its salvaged timbers were then reused to rebuild the bridge in 2000 over Bear Creek near Rose Lodge.
