By the early 1990's officials in both Nebraska and South Dakota determined that an upgrade was needed at the Missouri River crossing at Yankton. The question became, what to do with the Meridian Bridge?

Once the Meridian Bridge was built, then came the work of maintenance. Don List details what type of work it took to keep the bridge functional.
