}} The Plattsmouth Bridge is a truss bridge over the Missouri River connecting Cass County, Nebraska and Mills County, Iowa via U.S. Route 34. The bridge has seven spans, including the cantilevered through truss over the river's navigable channel. It is anchored by through spans, with two and two deck trusses over the eastern flood plain. The bridge has clearance of 14'5" ()〔See photo.〕 and a width of . The bridge was built in 1929, replacing a ferry that previously operated at the site. It was designed by the Omaha Structural Steel Works. In November 2006 it was decided to repair the bridge rather than build new bridges. Earlier plans had called for a new $42 million two-lane bridge and bypass of Plattsmouth.〔(Plattsmouth residents hear of road, bridge plans ) Lincoln Journal-Star August 31, 2005〕 The new bridge would have been about south of the existing one. In November 2007, ownership of the bridge was transferred from the private Plattsmouth Bridge company to the public Plattsmouth Bridge Commission.〔(Plattsmouth bridge closing for repairs ) Omaha World-Herald April 15, 2008〕 Between April 21, 2008 and November 9, 2008, the bridge was closed as part of a federally funded bridge restoration.〔 The bridge reopened November 9, 2008.〔(Renovation complete, Missouri River bridge near Plattsmouth to re-open Sunday ) SouthwestIowaNews.com November 8, 2008〕 As of 2011, the toll for cars was $1.25.〔Duggan, Joe.
