Bridge No. 63-016-150 is located in rural western Turner County, carrying 283rd Street over an unnamed stream, between 441st and 442nd Avenues. It is a two-arch stone structure, with a total length of about 22 feet (6.7 m).

This bridge is one of 180 stone arch bridges built in Turner County as part of a New Deal-era federal jobs program, the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA). The county administration was able to build stone bridges at a lower cost than then-conventional steel beam bridges because of the availability of experienced stone workers, and the federal subsidy to the wages they were paid. The county was responsible for supervising the work crews and providing the building materials. This bridge was built in 1935 by a county crew to a standardized state design. It is one of only two bridges in the county built with FERA funding; others were built with later Works Progress Administration funds. [2]
