Sacramento River Trail Bridge
The Sacramento River Trail Bridge is a concrete stressed ribbon bridge. It was the first of its kind in North America when inaugurated in 1990. The 13-foot-wide, 418-foot-long span contains 236 steel cables inside the bridge deck. The cables are connected to anchors drilled deep into solid bedrock. The bridge is part of a popular recreational trail which follows the Sacramento River in Redding, California.
