These six bridges on the state highway system have a
design that is similar to the one that collapsed in
Minneapolis, Minnesota on August 1st, 2007. Each bridge
is a unique structure. These bridges have components
that are similar to the steel arch truss structure that
collapsed in Minnesota, but are not exactly the same.
All of the deck truss bridges on the state highway system
are inspected at least once a year.
- U.S. 59 (Amelia Earhart) bridge over the Missouri
River at Atchison (scheduled for rehabilitation
or replacement beginning in 2009). There is a short deck truss
section on each side of the
river. The majority of the bridge is a different
design, called a through truss.
