Abstract:Louisiana has approximately 160 movable bridges, mostly in the southern part of the state, which
places Louisiana among states with the highest inventory of movable bridges in the nation. These
transportation arteries are important for the economic well-being of the state, as well as for the
safety of the inhabitants in hurricane-vulnerable regions during evacuation. Most of the movable
bridges in Louisiana are either swing-span or lift-bridge type structures, while very few movable
steel bridges are of the bascule type.
