The 25 de Abril Bridge (Ponte 25 de Abril "25th of April Bridge", is a suspension bridge connecting the city of Lisbon, capital of Portugal, to the municipality of Almada on the left bank of the Tejo river. It was inaugurated on August 6, 1966 and a train platform was added in 1999. Because of its similar coloring, it is often compared to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, USA. In fact, it was built by the same company (American Bridge Company) that constructed the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge and not the Golden Gate, also explaining its similarity in design. With a total length of 2,277 m, it is the 20th largest suspension bridge in the world. The upper platform carries six car lanes, the lower platform two train tracks. Until 1974, the bridge was named Salazar Bridge.

Sunset Beach Bridge pontoon bridge

By: kjfitz

Since most of Sunset Beach and the adjoining Bird Island coastal reserve encompass a barrier island, the only way to get there from the mainland is by crossing a pontoon bridge (swing bridge) straddling the Intracoastal Waterway and adjacent marshland. It is a wooden structure than can only hold one lane of traffic at any given time, and is the only one of its kind still in use along the East Coast. While this does cause headaches for those trying to get on or off the island, many locals say the bridge does give the town a more relaxed feel. Historically, this has been in stark contrast to the rapid growth affecting other beach communities along the Grand Strand. However, the NCDOT started construction to replace the old bridge with a modern, 65' high arc bridge (non-draw, non-swing) in March 2008. The full project is scheduled to be completed by December 2010, but it is possible that the bridge will open to traffic by Summer 2010. The new bridge will eliminate the need for a bridge keeper, and will provide for a continual flow of vehicle traffic on and off the island, and water traffic on the Intracoastal Waterway.]]>

Alvord Lake Bridge on Kezar Drive in Golden Gate Park conveys traffic above a pedestrian footpath through the park. The bridge survived the San Francisco earthquake of 1906 and is believed to be the oldest existing bridge with steel reinforcing rods in the United States. The bridge was built in 1889 by Ernst L. Ransome. The interior of the bridge has man-made stalactites hanging from the ceiling. ]]> http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/alvord-lake-bridge/ http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/alvord-lake-bridge/ Fri, 10 Apr 2009 14:00:25 -0700 http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/alvord-lake-bridge/ 37.76916100 -122.45492200 <![CDATA[Black Squirrel Creek Bridge]]>

King Philip the Fair of France officially launched the building of the bridge in 1303 while on a tour to Toulouse. The project took 30 years to complete, and the bridge was inaugurated in 1335. The main architects were Étienne de Ferrières and Mathieu de Verdun. It is a pink brick structure over 205 meters (224 yards) in length, but while its fortified towers have disappeared, it is otherwise in good preservation. The bridge was designed to resist the violent floods of the Tarn River, and indeed it withstood successfully the two terrible millennial floods of 1441 and 1930. The bridge is a straight level bridge, which is quite unusual for Medieval Europe, where lack of technological skills meant that most bridges were humpback bridges.]]>

Solomon Christman also had a water powered sawmill and remnants of the mill trace can still be seen near the road, 200 yards west of the bridge. Christman Bridge spans Seven Mile Creek. Evret S. Sherman constructed the 100 foot Christman Bridge in 1895. Of the six covered bridges in Preble County built by Sherman, all are constructed with the Child's truss. The interior of Christman Bridge has horizontal floor planking with two lengthwise runners. The exterior has a red/white tin roof and .white plank siding with projected portals. With a single span, the bridge sets on stone abutments with concrete assistance. The bridge was strengthened in 1920 and once again in 1960. Christman Bridge is open to local traffic. ]]>

The Grosvenor Bridge is a single-span arch road bridge constructed from stone.
The bridge was designed by Thomas Harrison, and was opened by Princess Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld on 17 October 1832, although it was not open to traffic until November 1833. At the time of its construction, the bridge was the longest single-span arch bridge in the world, a title that it retained for 30 years.

'A ford from earliest times, the site of Bedford bridge has yielded roman and medieval coins. Edward the Elder occupied the town and built a burh south of the river in 915. It is possible that the first bridge was constructed to link the southern burh with an existing settlement north of the river. George Noble's engraving depicts the first stone bridge, known as The Great Bridge, with a toll booth (on the left) and what was possibly the chapel of St Thomas on the right. Both buildings were demolished in 1765. An Act of Parliament was passed in 1803 for the improvement of Bedford and the rebuilding of the dilapidated and decaying bridge. The remnants of the first bridge are seen being removed in the oil by George Arnald. The replacement bridge designed by John Wing, and seen in Robert Havell's lithograph, was completed in 1813. The width of the bridge was doubled in 1938 to the size we know today.']]>

In 1485 the Vicar of Sheffield, Sir John Plesaunce, and William Hill, who was a master mason, both agreed to build a bridge of stone "over the watyr of Dune neghe the castell of Sheffeld" at a cost of about £67. A small chapel, dedicated to the Virgin Mary, was built close to the bridge, and the bridge became known as 'Our Lady's Bridge'. When built it could only be crossed by pedestrians as there were steps at either end of the bridge. The chapel had been converted for use as a wool warehouse by 1572, and was subsequently used as an Alms house.

This pedestrian gangplank is the main characteristic of the bridge that descends slightly from the access bench mark and, after an inflection point, it begins to ascend until arriving to the 20 m of height, being used for it 100 steps. The pedestrian gangplank leans on in the structure of the bridge and for its nimbleness and its undulant form ends up seeming a rope suspended in the air .

The Bietigheim Enz Valley Bridge is a well-known German railway bridge over the Enz vallay at Bietigheim-Bissingen and one of the landmarks of the city. It was built from 1851-1853 as part of the railway line Bietigheim Bruchsal under the direction of Karl Etzel. The Bietigheim Enz Valley Bridge is a bricked stone construction with two elbow rows. The viaduct is approx.. 287 meters long, approx.. 33 meters high and has 21 elbows, which stretch themselves over the Enz valley. Six elbows were destroyed at the end of the Second World War; from that afterwards beside it an auxiliary bridge, which was opened on 1 August 1945 was erected, from which are still some foundations visible. The damaged columns were again developed later, one of the elbows had to be locked completely with concrete. Directly beside the Bietigheim Enz Valley Bridge there is the festival area of Bietigheim Bissingens, on which at the beginning of Septembers the Bietigheim Horse Market, a beer festival, takes place annually.

Al Garhoud Bridge is one of four road bridges over Dubai Creek, and one of five crossing, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It was the second bridge to cross the Creek, after Al Maktoum Bridge. It opened in 1976.

Nearly 9,000 vehicles cross the Al Garhoud Bridge every hour at peak flow. It has been the cause of huge traffic snarls in Dubai. The reason for this is the number of roads that feed into the bridge. On the Bur Dubai-bound lanes, seven lanes (from three different roads) converge into three lanes.

Today all traffic from this part of California passing into Nevada (or vise versa) must pass across Hoover Dam. This bridge will by-pass the dam.

The Hoover Dam Bypass Project reached another major milestone in October 2004 with the award of the contract for the final connection – the Colorado River Bridge. The Colorado River Bridge is the central portion of the Hoover Dam Bypass Project. Construction on the nearly 2,000 foot long bridge began in late January 2005 and the completion of the entire Hoover Dam Bypass Project is expected in June 2010. When completed, this signature bridge will span the Black Canyon (about 1,600 feet south of the Hoover Dam), connecting the Arizona and Nevada Approach highways nearly 900-feet above the Colorado River.

Deception Pass is a strait separating Whidbey Island from Fidalgo Island, in the northwest part of the U.S. state of Washington. It connects Skagit Bay, part of Puget Sound, with the Strait of Juan de Fuca.

Upon completion in July 1935, the 976 foot span Deception Pass Bridge connected Whidbey Island to the tiny Pass Island, and Pass Island to Fidalgo Island. Prior to the bridge, travellers and businessmen would use an inter-island ferry to commute between Fidalgo and Whidbey islands.

Deception Pass is today surrounded by Deception Pass State Park, the most-visited park in Washington with over 2 million visitors each year. The park was established in the 1930s when the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) built roads, trails, and buildings in order to develop the park. Deception Pass is also a destination for kayaking.]]>

The longest cable stayed bridge in Ireland, the bridge carries traffic from the M1, across the River Boyne, linking Dublin and Belfast.

The location of the bridge facilitated it being the cable stayed design. The area is environmentally sensitive, especially the reed beds on the north bank and the flora and fauna of Yellow Island in the middle of the river. The area also has a rich heritage as it is also situated adjacent to the area in which the 1690 Battle of the Boyne took place.]]> http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/boyne-river-bridge/ http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/boyne-river-bridge/ Mon, 08 Oct 2007 02:11:25 -0700 http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/boyne-river-bridge/ 53.71865400 -6.39663900 <![CDATA[Spencerville Covered Bridge]]>

The Washington State Department of Transportation collects a $3.00 toll on the eastbound bridge to recoup construction costs. The existing span has been toll-free since 1965, and will remain so.
