The Liberty Bend Bridge is the common name for the two continuous truss bridges on Route 291 over the Missouri River in Sugar Creek, Missouri in the Kansas City metropolitan area. Although the bridges cross over the Missouri River, they do not cross the county line. When the Missouri River was rerouted in 1949, it cut across the northern part of Jackson County, Missouri. This left part of the county north of the river, which is known as River Bend. The original Liberty Bend Bridge was located about two miles to the north, which then crossed over into Clay County, Missouri.

The main span length is 460.1 feet and the total length is 1,883.3 feet. Vertical clearance is 16.5 feet. The northbound deck has a width of 23.9 feet, and the southbound bridge has a width of 40 feet. The northbound bridge is taller than the southbound one, though the southbound bridge is wider and was made using contemporary construction techniques.
