The Veterans Memorial Bridge are two twin tied arch structures carrying Route 364 across the Missouri River between St. Louis County and St. Charles County, Missouri. Each bridge supports five lanes of traffic, the northern (downstream) brige westbound, and the southern (upstream) bridge eastbound.
On the north (downsteam) side of the bridge runs a bike path that connects Creve Coeur Memorial Park to the Katy Trail.
