The New Memorial Drive would extend from the Poplar Street
Bridge north to Cass Avenue, reconnecting Downtown St. Louis
with the Arch, Laclede’s Landing and Chouteau’s Landing.
The New Memorial Drive improves connections between destinations
I-70 & Memorial Drive at Spruce Street
The New Memorial Drive would run 1.4 miles from the
Poplar Street Bridge to Cass Avenue, and would involve
mostly demolition, fill and paving at grade. There would
be no new bridge structures included in the project. If a
worst case cost equaling Highway 40 is used this would
be about $70 million.
What are the alternatives?
The “Lid” concept, which
would actually be a tunnel
would cost $87 million and
would only span 3 blocks,
leaving the depressed &
elevated lanes as well as the
transition barriers to the
north and south.
