A concrete culvert bridge over a small unnamed creek in the Rural Municipality of Montcalm was built in 1924 by the Winnipeg-based William Newman & Company, using Plan 1063, at a cost of $1,321. Formerly part of Provincial Trunk Highway 14, the bridge now stands abandoned between a local road and a railway track.
