BRIDGE DESIGN: Extra for shipping | Roads & Bridges

BRIDGE DESIGN: Extra for shipping | Roads & Bridges: "The Bayonne Bridge opened on Nov. 15, 1931, as the longest steel-arch bridge of its day and retained that title for more than 45 years. The single-span through-arch truss stretches 1,652 ft across the Kill van Kull. The approaches, consisting of a twin steel-plate girder system with floorbeams and slab, take the overall length of the structure to 6,974 ft."
