Description
The Rocky Creek Bridge was built in 1932. Before the opening of the bridge in 1932, residents of the Big Sur area were virtually cut off during winter due to blockages on the often impassable Old Coast Road, which led 11 miles inland. Construction required 45,000 sacks of concrete. It is located about 13 miles south of Carmel, California on the beautiful, scenic California Highway 1. The bridge is 714 feet in total length and 24 feet wide, with 260 feet of clearance below, and has a main span of 360 feet.
