The Powers Highway-Battle Creek Bridge is a bridge that formerly carried Powers Highway over Battle Creek in Brookfield Township, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.[1] The bridge is a double-intersection Warren truss, a design noted for its extremely lightweight members and low cost. It is the only known example of its type in Michigan.[2]
