The Bell Road Bridge is a Pratt through truss bridge in Dexter Township, Washtenaw County, Michigan. Built in 1891, the bridge carried Bell Road over the Huron River. From 1997 to 2018, the bridge sat on the riverbank, overgrown with brush. The bridge is a Michigan State Historic Site and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Around the same time, a bridge was constructed crossing the Maple River a few hundred feet from the location of the current bridge, at the time carrying Upton Road over the Maple River. The grist mill operated for a number of years, going through multiple owners. In 1901, Duplain Township voted to allocate money to replace the Upton Road bridge.
The bridge over the river, including approaches over adjacent wetlands, is the seventh-longest in the state at 3,709 feet (1,131 m) and sits 47 feet (14 m) above the river. Seven other bridges along M-231 bring the total to nearly a mile (1.6 km) for the entire highway.
