Pikes Peak Bridge
This bridge will be lost soon. New bridge construction of the two "flood" spans are in full swing now. The project is slated to be fully completed Fall 2009.
Pikes Peak Bridge
MoDot has this bridge in the planning stages to be replaced in the next few years. They are discussing the option of closing the road to traffic during construction to save costs. New bridge is needed but the locals aren't happy about this plan. Detour would be several miles.
