truss

whereas the trusses supporting the approach lanes are underneath the deck, the central Burrard bridge truss is above the deck in order to increase clearance for boats

The height of the masts do need the clearance.

It looks like a robust structure, maybe not the prettiest of bridges though.....

beautiful and busy harbour scene, very impressive bridge structure! V

Some industrial architecture to do the job right. A fine detailed image, David. V

Smart architecture that, rather than having to raise and lower the bridge for boats (like one in Seattle)

Nice perspective and tight framing. A myriad of detail here. "V"

Excellent shot of the boats dwarfed by that interesting bridge structure David.

How many times I trundled across that bridge in the 60s!! What a fabulous shot of it and the boats below. V

Terrific image of this busy bridge and the marina below. I must make it down there in 2020.

The Burrard is a bridge that looks like it means business. Nicely captured from this position.
