Bixby Creek Bridge

Located on scenic California Highway 1 13.3 miles South of Carmel, Bixby Creek Bridge was one of the largest single-arch concrete bridges in the world when it was completed in 1932.  It is 714 feet long and has a main span of 320 feet. 300,000 feet of timber, excavation of 4,700 cubic yards of earth and rock and 45,000 sacks of cement transported from San Andreas and Davenport (near Santa Cruz) were part of the equation for solid and long-lasting construction.
