Bullards Bridge

Local nameBullards Bridge
LocationOregon, United States

The Bullards Bridge is a vertical-lift bridge that spans the Coquille River near where the river empties into the Pacific Ocean, just north of Bandon, Oregon, United States. One of only two vertical-lift bridges on the Oregon Coast Highway, it was completed in 1954. The lift span is flanked by two camelback truss spans. It is located immediately east of Bullards Beach State Park.

The bridge was built to replace Bullards Ferry, a ferry service whose slip was located about 80 feet upstream from the bridge that replaced it. The name originates with the Bullard family, who were among the early settlers in the area. The Oregon Highway Commission awarded a contract for construction of the bridge and a 0.49-mile new section of highway in October 1952.
