The Cedar Canyon Bridge is a steel arch highway bridge on US 60 (US 60) near Show Low, Arizona. The 180-foot (55 m) span ribbed girder arch bridge was built in 1937–38 with a total length of 250 feet (76 m). The 24-foot-wide (7.3 m) bridge was substantially widened and upgraded in 1994, using the identical arch from the Corduroy Creek Bridge to double the width of the bridge while rehabilitating the deck structure.[2]
