  · The Mohammed VI Bridge
The Mohammed VI Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge located in Rabat, the capital city of Morocco. Completed in 2016, the bridge spans over the Bouregreg River and connects the cities of Rabat and Salé. With a total length of 950 meters, the bridge features a modern design and is one of the longest cable-stayed bridges in Africa. It serves as an important transportation link between the two cities, reducing travel time and improving the efficiency of the region's transportation infrastructure.

When you can't afford a bridge.

  · A 1932 American Bantam that was used for ferry service over the Pudding River in Oregon. The operator removed the tires and placed rubber bands on the rims for traction. Three cables were strung, two for the wheels and the third attached through the top of the car for stability. It was said that one gallon of gas was enough for 1500 trips across the 120 foot span.

Can’t compete with some of the amazing bridges already shown but this bridge is very impressive ..  it’s the start of the disused Sapperton bridge that went two miles underground and barges had to ‘walk’ through as there was no towpath  ..  it joined the Severn to the Thames.  We found this during a 15 miler and it was a brilliant walk ..  started at the Crown in Frampton Mansell where we stayed and lunched at the Bell at Sapperton .. top pubs and a highly recommended.

Is it just me or is that really confusing?

I think we could do with seeing the other side of the mountain.

 

I presume the road takes you from the bottom to the top via a winding/ascending road that has to keep going through the mountain as it climbs. :dunno: Maybe.

The San Boldo Pass in Italy 🇮🇹

This looks like the scenes in a cartoon when the character runs through one entrance and then out a random one, so they go back in and appear somewhere else and so on.
