The West Milton Bridge is a steel girder bridge carrying Bear Trap Road across the Lamoille River in Milton, Vermont, United States. It was built as a replacement for a 1902 Pennsylvania truss bridge, which was relocated to the site of the Swanton Covered Railroad Bridge, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1]

The West Milton Bridge is located in the small rural village of West Milton, which is little more than a strip of residences and rural businesses on the eastern shore of the Lamoille River, which empties into Lake Champlain approximately one mile to the west.
