The Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge s-curves elegantly over the Missouri River, linking Council Bluffs, Iowa with Omaha Nebraska. Kerrey was the 35th Governor of Nebraska (1983-1987) and then served in the U S Senate. I'll be strolling over this treble-clef-shaped structure sometime early June, as both cities are, as per this blog, on Route 6. For now, I'll leave you with this rendering of the new crossing and will be taking photos of my own once I'm there...
US Route 6 is the longest contiguous transcontinental route in the USA. Running from Provincetown, MA to Bishop, CA (and before 1964 to Long Beach, CA), Route 6 goes through 14 states. This is your guide along all of its original 3,652 miles. From Revolutionary War sites to pioneer settlements and western mining towns, Route 6 offers an in-depth lesson in US History, charms of yesteryear and comforts of modern times.
