We study the problem of low-stretch spanning trees in graphs of bounded width: bandwidth, cutwidth, and treewidth. We show that any simple connected graph $G$ with a linear arrangement of bandwidth $b$ can be embedded into a distribution $\mathcal T$ of spanning trees such that the expected stretch of each edge of $G$ is $O(b^2)$. Our proof implies a linear time algorithm for sampling from $\mathcal T$. Therefore, we have a linear time algorithm that finds a spanning tree of $G$ with average stretch $O(b^2)$ with high probability. We also describe a deterministic linear-time algorithm for computing a spanning tree of $G$ with average stretch $O(b^3)$. For graphs of cutwidth $c$, we construct a spanning tree with stretch $O(c^2)$ in linear time. Finally, when $G$ has treewidth $k$ we provide a dynamic programming algorithm computing a minimum stretch spanning tree of $G$ that runs in polynomial time with respect to the number of vertices of $G$.
