The Heart of America Bridge is a vehicular girder bridge located in Kansas City, Missouri, spanning the Missouri River and serving as a crucial transportation route for Route 9.
Opened in 1987, this bridge was designed as a replacement for the upper level of the ASB Bridge and runs parallel to it, a short distance downstream. In addition to accommodating vehicular traffic, it also features a bi-directional bicycle and pedestrian path, providing a convenient and scenic route for alternative modes of transportation.
