I'm heading west on the Katy early October and looking for camping suggestions near Jeff City and close to the trail. Are there any options that don't require crossing the bridge (ie: north of the river)? Is there a bike path on the bridge if I want to go into Jeff City?

I suggest you think about Hartsburg (Volunteer Park, plus food options) or Tebbetts (hostel) instead: Much better options there.

Yes the bridge has a bike path. From the southern end of the bridge it is an easy ride to Clif Manor B&B as well as a few hotels just south of the capital building if those were an option over camping for a night.

I believe there are a few primitive camping sites at the Noren river access just west of the bridge. The same route that you would take to cross the bridge into JC goes right by the access.
