It was designed and built in 1958 by the Minnesota Department of Transportation. The bridge is longer than any other bridge upstream of the Richard P. Braun Bridge in Coon Rapids, Minnesota. This is because the Highway 24 bridge crosses a river road and three spans of floodplain before actually crossing the Mississippi. Proposed future bridgeThe two-lane highway 24 serves as a major route for weekend recreational traffic transferring between Interstate 94 and U.S. Highway 10. As such it is badly over capacity and congestion is predicted to worsen on weekdays as the area becomes developed. To relieve congestion, a new freeway connection is proposed that would cross the river several miles to the east. Construction is currently proposed for the 2015-2023 timeframe, but may be sped up as this is considered a high priority project and more funding for transportation projects has recently become available due to a gasoline tax increase. It is not known if the new crossing will carry the MN 24 designation or a different number, as the present highway between Clear Lake and Clearwater would undoubtedly be transferred to local jurisdiction. The existing bridge will be maintained for local traffic and is proposed to be replaced in a separate project around 2040.[1] See also
