If you imagine how much water this thing can handle and the boats on it, this is incredible! Look how long that span is on the middle!

Just don`t be in the boat on the bridge in about 50 years when the cement has deteriorated.

Just from the picture, yeh. But "engineering wise", it was built to create a shortcut.

So much for "somewhat dumb".

And the nerdy take is that the cool thing about this bridge is that the weight the bridge has to hold doesn`t change no matter how many boats are on it, because the boats displace exactly the same weight in water as however much the boats weigh.
