Built in 1907, the Lowell Bridge is another covered bridge in Oregon. It crosses the Dexter Lake in Lowell Oregon and is also known as the Middle Fork Willamette River Covered Bridge.

The Lowell Bridge has gone through a series of changes through the years. It has been originally built in the early 1900s, but was replaced in 1945 after an accident took place in the bridge which caused major damages to the structure. It has also been raised by six feet in 1953, to avoid further problems that are foreseen to happen in case the Dexter Dam floods the area.

The Lowell Bridge is the widest of all the structures of the same sort in the state. It is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places as of 1979.
