The McClugage Bridge carries U.S. Route 150 over Upper Peoria Lake & Peoria Lake in the Illinois River in the US state of Illinois. The bridge's official name honors David H. McClugage, mayor of Peoria from 1937 to 1941.[3] The crossing is actually composed of two bridges, one carrying westbound traffic and one carrying eastbound traffic.
