Calaveras County, California Bridges: Pool Station Road Bridge across San Antonio Creek

April 2013 (38.14278 Degrees, -120.66194 Degrees) Pool Station Road Bridge
Continuing south on Pool Station Road we crossed several creeks within a few miles of each other.

The San Antonio Creek Bridge is a three span slab bridge on wide pier walls and seat-type abutments. It's 118 ft long, 32 ft wide, on a 15 degree skew, and it was built in 2006.

Its interesting that all these bridges on Pool Road were built in the last few years. Perhaps Pool Road was recently upgraded (or recently built) by the county?

Note all the flood protection around the abutments. Its hard to believe that this little creek could become such a raging torrent!
