The Clark Bridge is a cable stay design bridge with a length of 4,620 feet. The bridge replaced a 65 year old truss bridge which was also called the Clark Bridge. Both bridges are named for William Clark of Lewis and Clark fame. The new bridge has 4 highway lanes for US Hwy 67. The coordinates listed above are on the west side of the river. The best way to experience this bridge is to ride a bicycling across in its designated bicycle lane.
