The Brumbaugh Bridge was a covered bridge in Lane County in the U.S. state of Oregon. Built in 1948, the structure originally carried Row River Road over Mosby Creek near Cottage Grove.{{cite news|last=Luta|first=Larry|title=Brumbaugh Bridge to Move: Meadows Fate Uncertain|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1310&dat=19790510&id=UgtWAAAAIBAJ&sjid=AOIDAAAAIBAJ&pg=6668,3267612&hl=en|newspaper=Eugene Register-Guard|date=May 10, 1979|via=Google News|accessdate=February 4, 2016}} It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979 and was subsequently delisted.

The bridge was demolished in 1979. Some of its timbers were combined with timbers from Meadows Bridge, also demolished in 1979, to construct a covered pedestrian bridge, Centennial Covered Bridge, over the Coast Fork Willamette River in Cottage Grove.{{cite web|title=Centennial Covered Bridge|publisher=Lane County, Oregon|url=http://www.lanecounty.org/about/pages/centennial.aspx|accessdate=February 4, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304092134/http://www.lanecounty.org/about/pages/centennial.aspx|archive-date=2016-03-04|url-status=dead|df=}}
