The EWZ Bridge over East Channel of Laramie River is a Pratt pony truss bridge that was located near Wheatland, Wyoming, which carried Platte County Road CN8-204 (Palmer Canyon Road) over the East Channel of the Laramie River. The bridge was built from 1913 to 1914 by the Pueblo Bridge Company. The single-span bridge was long. The bridge's five-panel Pratt pony truss design with steel pin connections was used fairly frequently in Wyoming highway bridges, and the bridge was one of the older examples of the style.
