The Chitwood Bridge is a covered bridge in Lincoln County in the U.S. state of Oregon.[1] The bridge carries Chitwood Road, off U.S. Route 20, over the Yaquina River at Chitwood.[1] The structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[2]

Historically, Chitwood was a station on the railway line between Corvallis and Toledo. It was named for Joshua Chitwood, who lived nearby during construction of the railway, 1881–85.[3] Trains still use the railway, but they no longer stop in Chitwood.[1]

Lincoln County built the covered bridge in 1926. Scheduled for demolition, it was instead improved in 1984 through a federally funded restoration project. The Howe truss bridge is Шаблон:Convert long.[4]
