And the Terminator wants to replace it with a concrete viaduct/"skyway".

As if any waterside city deserves, including San Diego, an uninspired and pedestrian creation like the San Diego-Coronado Bridge.

It is tres cool, though.

The best part of the Royal Gorge bridge is when you get to the middle there is a sign that states no fishing from bridge

But where, exactly, is it?
 
We were in England last week and saw the news coverage of that amazing bridge. Not one story showed a MAP with the location of the bridge. :confused: Sure, it's over the Tarn, near Millau -- but if I don't have my atlas on hand, where is that? (Maybe it's just because I'm addicted to maps...but am I alone in that?)

Would love to drive across the bridge one day...
