BRIDGEPORT WEATHER

Bridgeport Area Cameras

Bridgeport was established in 1899 when the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad built through the North Platte Valley, growing up near a river crossing that gave the town its name. It was incorporated as a village in 1901 and later became the Morrill County seat.

Bridgeport is an incorporated city and the Morrill County seat, with a 2020 Census population of 1,454, down from 1,545 in 2010 and 1,594 in 2000. Its ZIP code is 69336. Bridgeport holds the record-tying lowest temperature ever recorded in Nebraska, -47°F on February 12, 1899. Nearby Courthouse Rock and Jail Rock, famous Oregon and California Trail landmarks about 5 miles south of town, are a major regional draw alongside an adjacent public golf course.
