List of road -rail bridges From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Road-rail bridges are bridges shared by road and rail lines. Road and rail may be segregated so that trains

may operate at the same time as cars (e.g., the Sydney Harbour Bridge ). The rail track can be above theroadway or vice versa with truss bridges. Road and rail may share the same carriageway so that road traffic

must stop when the trains operate (like a level crossing ), or operate together like a tram in a street (street

running ).

Road-rail bridges are sometimes called combined bridges .[1]

Fiji[edit ]

On Viti Levu the CSR Company was obliged to provide road-rail bridges when it built bridges for

the Cane Trains to their sugar mills, e.g. the two largest bridges over the Ba and Sigatoka Rivers.

Many are now rail-only as separate road bridges has been built.

The Ba Bridge (550 ft; 170 m) has 19 spans, 17 standard spans (30 ft; 9 m) and a short span at eachend, and has been rail-only for many years. The Sigatoka Bridge (810 ft; 245 m) has 27 spans. Both

bridges are prone to hurricane damage due to extra flow of water; the Ba Bridge often disappears

under water but is not always damaged (see Cane Trains ).

Sigatoka Bridge was washed away by storms, January 2009 .[18]
