This wood trestle bridge, serving foot traffic, electric streetcars and autos, replaced its short-lived predecessor (built in 1912) destroyed by a flood on 03/13/1914.
The Pacific Northwest Traction Company, an electric street railway formed in 1912, had tracks in the center of the Fremont Bridge #3, c. 1914-1915.
Demolished; this bridge was removed in 10/1915 to make way for the Fremont steel bascule bridge of 1917. Between 1915-1917, traffice was rerouted to the Stone Way Bridge. Once the sturdy new Fremont steel bascule bridge was complete in 1917, the Stone Way Bridge was taken down.
