Rulo Bridge, Road bridge between Rulo, Nebraska and Holt County, Missouri, United States.
The Rulo Bridge spans the Missouri River on U.S. Route 159, connecting Nebraska and Missouri with a modern steel structure measuring several hundred feet in length.
Built in 1939 by the Works Progress Administration and Kansas City Bridge Company, the original bridge earned a place on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.
The Rulo Bridge appeared in the 1973 film Paper Moon, marking its presence in American cinema and transportation infrastructure documentation.
The current bridge, opened in 2013, stands 650 feet south of the original structure's location and provides essential passage for vehicles traveling between the two states.
The original bridge's demolition in 2014 involved a controlled implosion, leading to its removal from the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.
