'''Isleton Bridge''' is a historic [bascule bridge](/source/bascule_bridge) carrying [California State Route 160](/source/California_State_Route_160) across the [Sacramento River](/source/Sacramento_River) north of [Isleton, California](/source/Isleton%2C_California), built in 1923. There are two concrete [tied arch](/source/Tied-arch_bridge) spans, each {{Convert|102|ft}} long, to the east of the main bascule span, which is {{Convert|226|ft}} long, and four concrete girder spans. The bridge was designed by Sacramento County engineer Charles W. Deterding, with the [Strauss Bascule Bridge Company](/source/Joseph_Strauss_(engineer)) of Chicago designing the bascule span. Steel portions of the bridge were fabricated by the [American Bridge Company](/source/American_Bridge_Company) and the bridge was constructed by Jenkins & Elton of Sacramento.<ref>{{Cite web |last1=Nayyar |first1=Margo |last2=Swim |first2=Tory |last3=Scott |first3=Gloria |title=Isleton Bridge (Bridge No. 24-51) |url=http://lcweb2.loc.gov/master/pnp/habshaer/ca/ca1400/ca1497/data/ca1497data.pdf |work=Historic American Engineering Record |publisher=Library of Congress |location=Washington, D.C. |access-date=2014-12-15}}</ref>
