Inventory Earth

Bridge Seek: BackBridge Seek: Home

Inventory Earth is a feature of HistoricBridges.org that is intended to provide basic location and bridge type data for selected locations across the globe that are not in the United States and are not covered by HistoricBridges.org. Many countries on this planet have spectacular historic bridges that are carefully preserved and maintained, yet research on the Internet shows that there are few websites out there that help people quickly identify and locate these bridges. The webmaster of HistoricBridges.org felt that creating a database to list bridges that are found in the process of online research and exploration to share with website visitors would be an easy way to help raise awareness of some of these bridges, without undertaking the effort needed to add a bridge to HistoricBridges.org's main Bridge Browser. The primary goal of an entry in Inventory Earth is to provide the location of the bridge, provide basic bridge type information, and offer a small comment about the bridge. In this sense, Inventory Earth is not so much the source of information and photos for a bridge, but moreso a search tool, organizer, and gateway to aid in Internet research and trip planning. There is also an intent in coverage and comments here to offer evidence to American visitors that historic bridges in the United States are not maintained as they should, and are also being demolished when rehabilitation is in fact feasible and prudent.

This project is currently in its infancy. The database should grow dramatically over time, and a search tool will be provided to filter results.

Special Bridge Conditions Legend
! Confirmed demolition date within one year or an especially historic bridge that is threatened with demolition at any level.
X The bridge has been confirmed demolished or collapsed.
S The bridge has been dismantled or moved to an offsite location and is not currently available for public viewing.
L Most or all of the original bridge material has been demolished and replaced, including historically significant elements, but some original parts of the bridge remain.
Note: This website cannot guarantee the current condition of any bridge on this website. Bridges lacking these icons should not necessarily be considered condition-free.

Manchester Railway Viaduct Cast Iron Arch Span Railway Over Water Street Manchester
England
United Kingdom

Cast Iron Deck Arch
Manchester is home to an unparalleled collection of cast iron arch bridges. Most of these spans display an unrivaled historic integrity, which makes them equally as significant as larger multi-span cast iron arch bridges in England. They are each individually significant, but may be part of a larger viaduct. Classifying these bridges either individually or as part of a greater viaduct has been difficult. For now, they are listed in loose terms. Feel free to email us with more specific information for these bridges. This is a very short span example.

Concrete arch, bowstring through "rainbow arch" (or Concrete Curved Chord Girder, Through, depending on reinforcing)
This could be a girder bridge or a concrete bowstring arch with filled arch depneding on how the reinforcing is inside the concrete. The design of the bridge that seems to show verticals/hangers rather than a flat concrete surface on the arch/girder seems to indicate it functions as an arch bridge. The bridge is a unique structure and highly unusual. It should be considered technologically significant. There may be a way to access the bridge in the southwest quadrant.

Metal Arch, Deck
With its rare crescent arches, this bridge is a magnificent bridge that contains two deck levels providing a combination of light rail and vehicular use. Thanks to people jumping off of the bridge to committ suicide, those who would rather enjoy life and this beautiful bridge must now endure an extremely ugly suicide barrier on the bridge which greatly detracts from the aesthetic value of the bridge. Better alternative suicide barriers and nets are available, and should be consider. Further, A 2010 study found that though the barrier prevented suicide attempts from the Viaduct, overall rates of suicide by jumping for the city of Toronto have not changed since its installation.

This stone bridge is a relatively young example of a stone arch bridge, and it appears concrete may have been used in some parts of its construction, which would not be suprising. In 1916, engineers had realized the power of concrete, but were often unsatisfied with its plain appearance and so stone was sometimes still used as well.

Concrete arch, bowstring through "rainbow arch" with Diagonal Members (Concrete Truss)
There has been debate over whether this should be called a concrete truss or bowstring arch with diagonals (like a spandrel braced arch). Either way, this is the only example of its kind known in Canada, and one of only two of this design in North America. If considered a bowstring/rainbow arch, it was built in the same year as the first known example in the United States. This is one of the most historically significant bridges in Canada.

Rouge River Railway Bridge Railway Over Rouge River Toronto

Metal Pratt truss, deck with riveted connections
This bridge appears to be an extremely rare example of a fishbelly deck truss. The design was used where a new truss was replacing an old superstructure and reusing substructrue. This appears to be the case here since the abutments are old stone. The fishbelly design allows for a deeper stronger truss without changing the track elevation.

Metal Camelback truss, through with pinned connections
From Waterloo Region Inventory: The MTO had drawings of the west abutment and have given copies to the Municipality for evaluation. A 1925 design drawing for a replacement superstructure indicated using the existing east abutment and pier. The west abutment was constructed around 1946, and the truss was likely moved slightly at this time, making the middle pier superfluous. The deck of the bridge was deemed unsafe by Woolwich Township, even for pedestrians.

Metal Warren truss, deck, with riveted connections.
If this bridge dates to the 1890s as a news article claims, it would be one of the most significant heritage bridges in Canada as one of the earliest examples of riveted connections on a truss bridge in Canada. Riveted connections were not common until 1910. One of the outer three spans is a Pratt truss rather than a deck truss, and this Pratt truss appears newer than the other two spans. Perhaps that span was damaged in a flood and replaced. This bridge is a good representative example of this bridge technology in Nova Scotia. The province does not plan to replace this bridge, but the city would like to. According to a news article, replacing this bridge came up during a meeting about city beautification. Apparantly nobody made the point that if this attractive truss bridge is replaced with a modern slab of concrete it will be detrimental to the beauty of the city. Repainting the heritaghe bridge would be a better way to improve the appearance of the city.

Some of the v-lacing has been replaced on the end posts at one end, but otherwise, this bridge also appears to have good historic integrity.

Metal Pratt truss, through with pinned connections.
This exceedingly rare Canadian example of a pin-connected truss bridge is a beautiful example of the technology. The decorative portal bracing knees with circle shapes also helps define the period in which the bridge was built, when bridges were actually designed to look attractive. Although this is not currenty what is happening, all pin-connected truss bridges in Nova Scotia (and all of Canada) should recieve a high level of preservation priority. In the case of this bridge, if this one-lane bridge is found to be insufficient for the two-lane road it serves, a one lane bridge could be built next to the historic bridge to form a one-way couplet of bridges. Alternatively, this bridge could easilly be preserved for non-motorized use, either in place here next to a replacement bridge, or relocated someplace new entirely. At no time would demolishing this bridge be appropriate. The heritage value and potential for reuse is simply too great in the view of HistoricBridges.org.

Metal Pratt truss, through with pinned connections, and Metal Pratt truss, pony with pinned connections
Pin-connected truss bridges are exceedingly rare, and thanks to demolition and replacement projects, they are becoming even more rare. This bridge was taken out by flooding, yet it still understates the importance of preserving those pin-connected truss bridges which remain in Nova Scotia and Canada as a whole. This bridge was rare enough as a pin-connected truss bridge, but the uncommon use of both pony and through span types added to the rarity of this bridge. Also, based on the condition of the bridge after collapse, it appears that this bridge could have at least been salvaged and restored for use by pedestrians at a new location. In the United States, collapsed truss bridges have been dragged out of rivers and restored. For the sake of heritage, why not do this in Canada too? Perhaps when the new ugly bridge is complete, people will realize the beauty of what was lost.

Metal Pennsylvania truss, through with pinned connections and Metal Pratt truss, through with pinned connections approach spans
The only reason that this bridge is not famous and being recognized by Canadians as one of the greatest heritage bridges in Canada is because Canada does not inventory its heritage bridges, end neither does Nova Scotia at the provincial level. Pin-connected truss bridges are exceedingly rare in Canada. Therefore, this landmark example with a large Pennsylvania truss nationally significant in its own right flanked by a Pratt truss span on each end is among the greatest examples. Nova Scotia plans to do the unthinkable and demolish and replace this bridge. If a new bridge really is needed, HistoricBridges.org strongly urges Nova Scotia to leave this bridge standing as a historic landmark next to the replacement bridge. Also, it is worth noting that the residents are afraid of this bridge because part of it failed a while back. However this is because someone did not obey the posted weight limit, and the part of the bridge that failed was a modern hanger, not part of the original material. This bridge could likely be rehabilitated for vehicular traffic.

Cable suspension/cable stayed hybrid bridge with deck girder stiffening. Triangulated suspension system (Gisclard System)
This is one of the most unusual and historically significant bridges in France and it may have international level of significance. Replacing an 1842 suspension bridge, this bridge is an example of a unique suspension method where stay come down from the towers to hold a suspension cable which in turn holds suspenders. The bridge has not been restored or maintained, however perhaps because of this it appears to be largely unaltered. Preservation of this bridge is essential but great care should be taken to retain original materials and not disrupt the historic integrity of the bridge. Any existing parts of the bridge that need replacement should be exactly replicated, since this bridge's significance arises from its engineering design and materials.

Metal cantilever through truss with riveted connections.
This is a beautiful example of a traditionally composed small-scale cantilever through truss bridge. With none of the architectual adornments and decorations seen on many heritage bridges in Europe, this bridge gets its beauty from its structure alone, from the comlex variety of angles in the truss, and the v-lacing in the built-up beams.

Cable suspension bridge with girder stiffening.
This unusual suspension bridge has four towers, but the center two are massive, traditional stone towers like those seen on the oldest suspension bridge, while the outer two are of an odd design that looks newer. The cable suspension and girder stiffening system look like something newer than the two center stone towers. It may be that two two center stone towers were reused from a former bridge, and the outer two towers were added in a new bridge to extend the length of the bridge and provide better flood clearance under the bridge.

This spectacular bridge is perhaps one of the largest and most significant examples of a lattice truss (multiple intersection Warren truss) bridge in France. The bridge is so long and with its extensive number of truss members and overhead bracing, it can feel like a tunnel when driving through it. This is truly a unique bridge that should recieve a high level of preservation priority. Follow the link to see an elevation view which shows how long this bridge is.

Metal Warren through truss bascule with riveted connections. Single leaf rolling lift bascule.
The only thing on this bridge that does not look American is that there is no rust or deterioration showing on it. Other than that, the simplistic Warren truss configuration with a simple rolling lift design is something far more common on metal bridges in the United States. Even the type of bars used to compose the v-lacing and lattice on the built-up beams are all features more common in the United States. Because of these characteristics, it is quite possible that the American bridge builder Sherzer Rolling Lift Bridge Company designed this bridge.

Through bowstring truss swing bridge.
Engineer: Paul Alexandre. Cantilevered sidewalks added in 1938. A regionally rare and significant example of a bowstring swing bridge. Partially blown apart by the Germans in World War II, this bridge was reconstructed to the original design, where the bridge remains today. The future of the bridge is uncertain, and a group exists to promote the preservation of this beautiful heritage structure, and their website is offered in the link column. HistoricBridges.org believes that to do anything other than preserve this heritage bridge would be unthinkable.

McFarlane Bridge Lawrence Road (Regional Road 152) Over Clarence River South Arm Maclean

Warren deck truss bascule with riveted connections. Rolling lift bascule with cable-drawn aspect.
This bridge may have been based off American bridges and engineering as the Hertiage and Conservation Register says, but it is doubtful that a bridge like this remains in America today. The unusual bascule design uses cables and a counterweight that rolls down a sloped tower to raise the bridge.

John Foord Bridge Wahgunyah Road (MR 86) Over Murray River Corowa
New South Wales
Australia
1892
Double-intersection Warren pony truss with riveted connections, continuous. "Iron Lattice Truss bridge"
Builder: Wahgunyah Murray Bridge Co. According to the heritage and conservation register, The John Foord bridge, completed in 1892, is of State significance. The iron lattice trusses are significant for their materials and form, and their association with British Bridge technology and design engineer John A McDonald. The form and setting have high aesthetic and social significance. The bridge as a whole is extremely important and visible identity of the historic precinct of Wahgunyah and Corowa. The bridge, completed in 1892, is the sixth in a series of seven lattice truss bridges designed by J A McDonald between 1887 and 1893. Despite local protests at the narrowness of the 5.5 metre carriageway, the original design was not altered and it remains unchanged today

Victoria Bridge Bridge Road (A1130) Over River Tees Stockton-on-Tees
England
United Kingdom
1887
Wrought iron deck arch, 3 spans
This wrought iron bridge was designed to look similar to the cast iron arch bridges of earlier years. A rather lucky bridge, a World War II bomb fell through the deck but did not explode. Today, the bridge looks essentially the same it has since the day it was built, and continuing to carry heavy city traffic, the bridge is a model of what proper bridge maintenance should be, and the potential service life of a heritage bridge that is cared for.
