Shade-Lohmann Bridge, Road bridge in Bartonville, United States
The Shade-Lohmann Bridge carries Interstate 474 and U.S. Route 24 across the Illinois River with four lanes divided between westbound and eastbound traffic.
Construction of the twin cantilever bridges began in 1973 and finished in 1975, connecting the communities of Bartonville and Creve Coeur over the Illinois River.
The bridge bears the names of J. Norman Shade, former mayor of Pekin, and Martin B. Lohmann, who served in the Illinois Legislature for three decades.
The structure spans 3,424 feet on the westbound side and 3,420 feet on the eastbound side, with a load limit of 60 short tons.
A 2017 reconstruction project costing 13.5 million dollars included steel repairs, electrical work, and sediment removal from the bridge piers.
