The 280th Street Bridge is a historic structure located southwest of Independence, Iowa, United States. It spans an unnamed creek for 39 feet (12 m). The Buchanan County Board of Supervisors contracted with D.H. Young, a contractor from Manchester, Iowa, to build eight bridges for $3,304.70. This bridge is a steel, pin-connected king post pony truss, that has a timber stringer approach span. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
