Alameda County, California Bridges: Five Canyon Parkway Bridge across San Lorenzo Creek

June 2014 (37.69667 Degrees, -122.04177 Degrees) San Lorenzo Creek Bridge

Castro Valley was created by the waters of San Leandro Creek and its tributaries. It was first colonized by Europeans as part of the land granted to Mission San Jose in 1797.  I-580 turns to the east at the 238-580 Interchange and then crosses over Castro Valley. In the photo above we are looking at I-580 over the Five Canyon Parkway Bridge (33C0445). It is curved 3 span continuous concrete box girder bridge built in 1992 across San Lorenzo Creek. In the next few days we are going to study bridges along the I-580 corridor near the east Alameda County border.
