Notes
- Until 1994, locals heavily used this crossing due to the constant problems of the Old Clark Bridge.
- On August 10, 1994, a broken beam caused the closure of 3 of the 4 lanes on the bridge for a few days. The lanes were reopened on August 14, 1994.
- In the near future, IDOT wants to replace this span as a part of widening I-270 from 4 lanes to 6 lanes from I-255 to Lilac.
- The nearby Canal Bridges is doomed as IDOT plans on replacing them.
- The I-70 Corridor of the Future by FHWA is favoring the I-270 corridor in St. Louis, which includes this bridge.

Our notes to each other, always repeated, always the same.”
