This bridge is named for the creek that it spans and is about 150 feet long. Standing about 30 feet above the creek, the bridge consists of three 50 foot reinforced concrete spans resting on two reinforced concrete piers and a seat on each bank. The construction dates are set in the concrete railing buttresses on the right hand side of either end of the bridge.
Arrow Creek itself rises in the mountains several miles to the north and flows into the Goat River just 300 metres downstream from the Crowsnest Highway. The Goat River, in turn, flows into the Kootenay River just west of Creston.
