Description

This group is for bridge enthusiasts. The bridge you drive across, NOT the card game. We talk about lots of bridges ("many spans"). Discussion about anything bridge-related is allowed. Feel free to talk about new bridges being built in your area, fond recollections of visits to bridges, bridges of yesteryear, bridge collectibles and artifacts, local bridge celebrations, railroad bridges, arches, cantilevers, suspension bridges, trusses, and all related civil engineering topics. You don't need to be an engineer to participate. Everything 'bridge' goes!
