The St. Charles Bridge near Pueblo, Colorado which brings Pueblo County Road 65 over the St. Charles River, was built in 1924. It is a filled spandrel arch bridge. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.^[1]

It has three 91 feet (28 m) spans achieving a total bridge length of 251 feet (77 m) with a roadway almost 20 feet (6.1 m) wide.
