Glasgow Bridge (Missouri)


The Glasgow Bridge carries Missouri Route 240 over the Missouri River between Cambridge Township and Glasgow, Missouri.

Original bridge

The original bridge was a five-span through truss bridge built in 1878–79 and rehabilitated in 1986. Its main span was 343.7 feet and its total length was 2,243.5 feet. It had a deck width of 20.3 feet and vertical clearance of 14.8 feet. It was narrowed to a single lane in its final few years before being closed and replaced in 2008–09.

Current bridge

The new bridge opened in September 2009 and the project was completed in autumn of that year.
