A four-span concrete beam bridge over the Little Saskatchewan River in the Rural Municipality of Oakview was built in 1918 by Brandon contractor Edmund Fulcher, using Plan No. 379, at a cost of $9,383. At the time of its construction, the bridge was on a major highway connecting Rapid City and Minnedosa. It was abandoned when the highway was rerouted.
