Ryde Bridge Analysis
Ryde Bridge Analysis
One truss our group has chosen is Ryde Bridge. Ryde Bridge is located at
Ryde over the Parramatta River. It is a truss bridge that was designed to
replace the previous ferry service between Church St in Ryde and Concord
Road in Rhodes. Furthermore, it was also constructed with a lift span so
that tall ships would be able to travel through it unimpeded, however, the
mechanism for this capability has been removed.
