This is the second bridge since 1901 to span the Kettle River at this spot.
 Originally used for a ferry crossing by the native tribes of the area, a cable ferry had been built in 1897 and washed away in the floods of 1898.
 To replace the ferry, a "Corduroy" bridge constructed from logs was erected in 1901.
  When the log bridge was destroyed by flood waters, bids were taken to replace the bridge in 1907.
The contract was awarded to William Oliver for $7,975, and construction was completed in 1908.
 This was the No.
165 bridge built by William Oliver.
