Christopher S. Bond Bridge, Road bridge in Hermann, Missouri
The Christopher S. Bond Bridge is a road bridge crossing the Missouri River with two driving lanes and shoulders for traffic flow. The structure also features a dedicated path for bicycles and pedestrians on its sides.
An original bridge was built in 1930 and served the region for many decades. It was replaced in 2007 with a new structure named after a former Missouri Governor and U.S. Senator.
The bridge serves as a daily connection for local residents crossing between the two riverbanks. It plays an important role in how people move through the region and maintain ties across the Missouri River.
Driving is straightforward with marked lanes and a level surface for easy traffic flow. Cyclists and pedestrians can use the separate paths and have convenient access to the nearby Katy Trail State Park.
A local resident attended ribbon-cutting ceremonies for both the original bridge and its modern replacement. Her presence at both events illustrates the bridge's deep history for the community.
