The Day Covered Bridge is a historic Queen post truss covered bridge in Morris Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania. It is 12 feet (3.7 m) by 36.5 feet (11.1 m) and rests on three stone-and-mortar abutments. It was renovated in 2003, in a project that added steel support beams, a new roof, flooring, and sidewalls.[2]

The Day Bridge is covered with vertical plank sidings on both sides and portals, and has a sheet metal gable roof.

It is designated as a historic bridge by the Washington County History & Landmarks Foundation.[3]
