A bridge with no deckSourced
This historic bridge no longer has a surface to cross.
New Zealand's Opiki Toll Bridge opened in 1918. After a nearby replacement bridge opened in 1969, its deck and stiffening trusses were removed for safety. The remaining structure later received heritage protection.
It now connects visitors with history, rather than the riverbanks.
