The Old Trails Bridge over the Colorado River, brought a now-abandoned portion of U.S. Route 66 across from Needles, California to Topock, Arizona. It is a brace-ribbed through arch bridge that was built in 1915-1916.[2] It served as a highway bridge until Interstate 40 bridge was built, then was converted to a pipeline bridge.

It has also been known as Topock Bridge and as Needles Bridge. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.[1][2]
