Sandy Creek Bridge is a covered bridge in Coos County, Oregon, described in its record as historic bridge in Oregon, USA. Oregon has 57 covered bridges on record at Wayfarrow, 2 of them in Coos County.

It was built in 1921, in the interwar years, making it the 7th oldest of the 41 in Oregon with a recorded construction date.

Status check, 2026-11: Carried OR-42 until it was bypassed in 1949 and now sits in a park as a pedestrian bridge; most sources say 60 ft, but Bridgehunter gives 60 ft as the main span and 98 ft as the total length, so length was left null. Sandy Creek Bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It stands at 43.0064° N, 123.8918° W.
