Bridge Advertisement

Memorandums of Agreement may also stipulate advertisement for adaptive reuse in place, or adaptive reuse at a new location if the bridge is movable. For instance, most bridges with metal through or pony trusses are movable; most concrete bridges are not.

Advertisements are usually submitted to two widely read periodicals, and a local newspaper and run for a period of about one month. If some one inquires and wishes to submit a proposal, they will be sent a packet of information on the historic bridge and will be allowed about one month to submit a proposal.

All serious proposals are reviewed by MoDOT, the Federal Highway Administration and the state historical organization. All proposals must contain certain basic information. We prefer that historic bridges be reused in an acceptable manner reflecting their original purpose, however, in the interest of preserving historic bridges, the need for transportation usage is not a firm requirement exclusive of other innovative adaptions. Proposals must contain maps photographs or sketches of the proposed bridge site, and specific information regarding intended use and public access to a bridge.

Proposals should contain information on financial resources available for transportation, re-erection, and maintenance, and should indicate an intention to place a bridge on the National Register of Historic Places. We do not demand reconstruction with severe conditions, but seek to assure a tasteful and useful application of historic bridges in keeping with their historic character and significance.
