We need a bunch of pre-fab structural designs that municipalities can put in quickly and affordable for various span lengths.
The American river could benefit a ton from this, as can all sorts of waterways in urban environments. Every bridge doesn't need to be unique and if we had a design contest which balanced aesthetics with durability and quality we should have a library of several design styles and have them placed over thin waters everywhere
- bombcar 3y agoWe need federal “no permit” guidelines for such - often the cost of the materials and labor is the lowest part. You often end up having to determine if the waterway is considered “navigable” even if nobody could ever run a boat up it.

- dang 3y agoOuch. You've unfortunately been breaking the site guidelines a lot lately. If you keep doing that, we're going to have to ban you, and eventually your main account as well. I don't want to do that, so could you please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to using HN in the intended spirit instead? (That means thoughtful, respectful conversation on topics you're genuinely curious about.) We'd be grateful.
