Alameda County, California Bridges: San Lorenzo Creek Bridges

June 2014 (37.69736, -122.04098) Old Dublin Road Bridge

We've been following the San Lorenzo Creek eastward through Castro Valley for the last few days. At today's location there are two similar closed spandrel arch bridges about 100 yards apart crossing the creek. In the photo above is Old Dublin Road Bridge (33C0023) across San Lorenzo Creek. It's a 41 ft long bridge built in 1927. 

In the next photo we can see the other arch bridge in the distance crossing the creek. I walked over to it but I couldn't get close enough to determine what road (if any) it carried. My best guess is that it's a long culvert carrying I-580 over the creek.
