Also known as the “Super Bridge” for its difficulty in being built and timing of its construction- which was still ongoing at the time of the Great Flood of 1993- The Clark Bridge’s arduous assembly was even featured in a NOVA documentary called “Super Bridge” which highlighted the difficulties of its construction. Hanson Engineers under contract of the Illinois Department of Transportation used techniques never before used in the United States. The bridge was the first time “Such a light, steel-framed, cable-stayed design was combined with a cable saddle type of pylon.”
