Spain 2019. TET and Vibraction Trans Pyrenees route. I crossed this bridge for the first time two years ago. At that time there were no railings, just a 6" kerb.

Hi Onhellas Is there a Reason Why Some Bridges Have a Roof on them ? Or is it Part of the Structure or Makes it Stronger or Something .Cheers Francis

I read the other day that the bridges are covered to protect the wood from the weather. Apparently it can virtually double the life span.

I assume that that refers to the bridge deck.
I do like a bridge, but there’s something extra special about a covered one. Maybe because we don’t seem to have them in Europe.
