Summary edit
| Description |
English: Cantilever Bridge, Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. The bridge provides pedestrian access from Castle Street to Railway Street across the water linking Humber Dock and Railway Dock. Both docks are now part of the Hull Marina. NOTE despite the description from geograph this is not a cantilever bridge though most bridges (excluding suspension bridges), including this one utilise in part (or within elements of the structure) a cantilever effect to support the bridge - it would usually be described a 'lifting bridge' or 'draw bridge' or 'bascule bridge' - also in the photograph in front on the white lifting footbridge is a swing bridge (iron built, painted black, swung open) - there are two of these - the other is on the opposite side, not visible - these bridges do use counterbalanced cantilever support - they are the original dock bridges - on the 1908 OS map they are called "Railway Dock Br." these older bridges originally carried a railway track across the dock entrance |
