Bridges in Bismarck/Mandan, ND
The list of bridges spanning the Missouri in Bismarck/Mandan from north to south are as follows:
Grant Marsh (I-94) Bridge
BNSF rail bridge
Liberty Memorial (Not part of I-94, but I think its part of the unamed I-194 branch in the area). This bridge is currenty scheduled to be replaced in 2007. Construction has started on the banks of Bismarck and Mandan for the new bridge.
Expressway Bridge (again, not technically part of I-94, but breaks off of I-94 and heads into south Bismarck).
Anyone with better editing skills, feel free to update the article.
[edit] Pony Express Bridge(s)
I'm not quite sure what to do about the proper name for the Pony Express Bridge. Official signage on the bridge refers to it as "Pony Express Bridges" (plural) because there are separate bridges for east and west bound traffic. The bridge it replaced was the Pony Express Bridge (singular) and so common usage is to refer to it by the singular name. Any suggestions? Thanks. Americasroof 17:33, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Demolished bridges?
I really like this article. Thanks for starting it. Before it gets too far out of hand, we should probably get our hands around the demolished issue. I just added an entry for the Nebraska City Bridge which makes reference to two prior bridges. A lot of these bridges are second and third generation at least.

[edit] Vermillion-Newcastle Bridge
It looks like that is the name of the bridge south of Vermillion, SD, at least by doing random web searching. I drove over it once, and don't recall if that had an official name, so until there is proof it does, I changed it to Vermillion-Newcastle Bridge. DandyDan2007 09:27, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
