I like the nice new bridge. I was lucky enough to be one of the first people to drive across it after it opened as I was visiting my grandfather in Saline City last weekend at the conclusion of my Spring Break. The bridge at this location has been needed some updating for some time now and the new bridge looks quite nice. Good work!!!

Wrong place MissouriBlooms-- It is on 41 on the way to Arrow Rock-- it is on the left side of the road if you are going to Arrow Rock from Marshall The only black top on the left right before you get to Arrow Rock-- AC then comes out on P HWY right next to Saline City.

take highway 41 North out of marshall towards Miami. AC will be on the drivers side just before you get to Miami. if Im correct the road eventually forms a T w/ "Coon Holler RD" haha or something equally as funny sounding.

This may be a dumb question, but is there anyway MDN can give a Mapquest location or some other specific identifier of the location? Like this - http://tinyurl.com/yfn9p7n
