The issues of the Route 66 State Park Bridge December 1, 2009

Longtime roadie Joe Sonderman appeared on KTVI-TV in St. Louis to discuss his opposition to the state’s planned demolition of the Route 66 Bridge at Route 66 State Park near Eureka, Mo.

I think Sonderman did a good job outlining why it may be a bad idea to knock down the bridge. But given the dangers the dilapidated bridge poses, it’s understandable why MoDOT is anxious to act for safety reasons.
