Bridge type?

Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Can anyone verify the type of bridge? This appears to be an under-truss or girder bridge in the photos here and any I can find online. Certainly none of the images show it as suspension. That doesn't mean it isn't partly suspension, quite often bridges are suspension for part of the span...e.g. over shipping channels. Bigjimleo (talk) 01:29, 25 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

User:Dpshaw changed it to a truss bridge using Structurae as a source. That seems to be correct. It's easier to leave out any references to it possibly being partly a suspension bride, since that was something I found unreferenced on another enwp page. jonkerz ♠ 14:07, 25 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
