Beyond Marsters Bridge, however, much of the grading is through soft pumice material. ANOTHER BRIDGE across Copeland Creek seems likely, no matter which side of the river the rood is located.

If the road is built on the south side, a two-lane bridge here would be likely. If the North Umpqua Road goes on the north side, however, the bridge may be built norrower for the lesser demands of log haulers. Deck of either bridge would be much higher than the existing span.
