Euless Main Street Over Little Bear Creek
Prestressed Concrete Multi Girder Built in 1967.
Wooden Piers from Old Euless Iron Bridge.
The Euless Old Iron Bridge was built in 1889 and first spanned the Trinity River in Arlington. It was moved to Euless - Grapevine Highway (North Main Street) in the early 1930s to cross Little Bear Creek.
When it was to be replaced on Main Street in 1975 some residents suggested that it be moved somewhere in Euless. Warren Fuller obtained an estimate as to the cost to move the bridge, but the estimate was much more than could be raised by the local people. However, it was election year for the county commissioner, so Mr. Fuller approached the then county commissioner who wanted to get the attention of the Euless residents to help ensure his reelection. The Old Iron Bridge now located at South Euless Park.
