Status check, 2026-11: The record's 1885 date is wrong: J.J. Daniels built this Burr arch bridge in 1873. Sources give 180 ft (state marker and NRHP, likely the span) or 192 ft, so the total length is left null. It has been closed to cars since 1974. Eugene Covered Bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It stands at 39.9692° N, 87.4731° W.
