The Orient Bridge, which spans the Kettle River between Ferry County, Washington and Stevens County, Washington, was built in 1909. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

It brings Richardson Road across the river. It includes a 180-foot-long (55 m) pin-connected steel Parker truss span, and is 240 feet (73 m) long in total, including approach spans.

The old bridge was apparently replaced by a new bridge in 1993.
