Significance

Built in 1902, the Daggett Road Bridge is significant on a statewide basis as the oldest existing movable highway bridge in California. Since the early 1850s, the moveable span bridge in California was designed to allow railroad or highway traffic to proceed across a navigable river or harbor under most conditions as well as allowing water-borne traffic to proceed unimpeded whenever the need arose. The bridge type offered a solution to a state which had been settled with navigable waterways, but later developed with railroads and highways. The bridge is considered a contributing structure to the property defined as the Naval Supply Annex Stockton Historic District that has been determined eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.
