State Road Bridge is a covered bridge spanning Conneaut Creek in Monroe Township, Ashtabula County, Ohio, United States. The bridge, one of currently 17 drivable bridges in the county, is a single span Town truss design. Constructed of 97,000 feet (30,000 m) of southern pine and oak, it features a 4-foot-tall (1.2 m) window which extends the length of the bridge. The dedication of the bridge in 1983 was the forerunner of the Ashtabula County Covered Bridge Festival.[1] The bridge’s WGCB number is 35-04-58,[2] and it is located approximately 3.9 miles (6.3 km) east-southeast of North Kingsville.

State Road Bridge is not to be confused with a covered bridge on another State Road in the county, Smolen-Gulf Bridge.
