The Niangua Arm US 54 Bridge was a truss-type bridge located on the Niangua Arm of the Lake of the Ozarks in Camden County, Missouri. It was the first bridge to span the completed Lake of the Ozarks. The bridge was similar to the Grand Glaize Bridge except that the steel framework was located on top of the deck. The bridge was torn down in 2000 and replaced by a girder bridge.
