The main span of the bridge will use more thas 50,000 cubic yards of concrete - enough to build a sidewalk from St. Louis to Springfield, Illinois and back (200 miles). It will take about 6,250 trucks to haul all that concrete.

The main span will require more than 8 million pounds of reinforcing steel - the weight equivalent of 2,716 cars.
