The Cottonwood River Pratt Truss Bridge is a historic bridge which carries Main Street across the Cottonwood River in Cedar Point, Kansas, USA. The single-span Pratt truss bridge was built in 1916 by the Missouri Valley Bridge and Iron Company. Locals proposed a bridge along a western extension of Main Street in 1914, but construction did not begin until late 1915 due to negotiations over its price; the county initially received no bids for the bridge after underestimating its cost, and it rejected every bid in the second round until the Missouri Valley Company dropped theirs to $8,750. The bridge is 142 feet (43 m) long, 17 feet (5.2 m) wide and is 32.5 feet (9.9 m) above the river. The Pratt truss design, with vertical and center-facing diagonal beams, was commonly used at the time due to its stability. The Cottonwood River bridge is one of roughly 800 examples of the type in Kansas.
