This three-span concrete beam bridge across Shanty Creek at Ethelbert, in the Municipality of Ethelbert, was constructed in 1918 by the construction firm of Fowler and Young at a cost of $8,418.
In poor condition at the time of a 2024 site visit, it is allegedly due to be replaced in the near future.
