The Discovery Bridge is a pair of truss bridges carrying Route 370 across the Missouri River between St. Louis County and St. Charles County, Missouri.
The shoulder on both sides is designated a bicycle (and pedestrian) path. Separate bicycle/pedestrian access ramps are available immediately on both sides of the bridge. This provides a connection to traffic to and from the Katy Trail, which passes under the bridge.
