footbridge
Span for walkers
A footbridge is a narrow bridge designed for pedestrians rather than vehicles.
Footbridges span rivers, ravines, highways, or railroad tracks, providing safe passage for people on foot.
They range from simple wooden planks to elaborate architectural structures.
The old footbridge swayed as we crossed the gorge.
