The Gilkey Bridge is a covered bridge in Linn County in the U.S. state of Oregon.[1] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places as Thomas Creek – Gilkey Covered Bridge in 1987.[2]

Carrying Goar Road, the bridge crosses Thomas Creek about {{convert|3.5|mi|km}} southwest of Scio.[1] Gilkey Bridge and a covered railroad bridge next to it crossed the creek at the former community of Gilkey.[1]

Gilkey was a station on the Southern Pacific Railway line between Crabtree and Shelburn.[3] The station, established in 1880, was named for Allen and William Gilkey.[1] Allen Gilkey came to Oregon in the early 1850s and settled nearby.[3]

The bridge, {{convert|120|ft|m}} long, was constructed in 1939. Damaged by an overloaded vehicle in 1997, it was closed for repairs, then reopened to traffic in 1998.[1]

The bridge was rehabilitated in 2017 in a $1.6 million project.[4]
