User:Tucoxn/List of Bridges in Pittsburgh
This list of bridges in Pittsburgh lists bridges inside the U.S. city limits of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The list is sortable by type, length, completion date, and location.
There are many bridges in Pittsburgh, known as "The City of Bridges" because of its proximity to three major rivers and countless hills and ravines. A 2006 study[1] determined that Pittsburgh has 446 bridges, making the city the world record holder for bridges with piers and stands contained entirely within its city limits. This total beats Venice, Italy, the previous record holder by 3 bridges. There are many more bridges in Pittsburgh that are not counted toward the world record as they lack piers. Many Pittsburgh bridges are not considered notable by Wikipedia editing guidelines and do not have their own pages.
