Some reference sitesEdit
Just ran across this list here: http://www.siue.edu/CCRU/websites.htm . I already knew about some. The brantacan.co.uk is excellent for bridge theory.

The first railway suspension bridge, Niagara Falls Suspension Bridge, requests a Peer Review and AssessmentEdit
Hi, I would like to invite the project to review the Niagara Falls Suspension Bridge after my 13-fold expansion. I would also like the project to assess this bridge's importance to the project and if it qualifies as A-class before I bring it to FAC. I feel the bridge is an important bridge both locally and internationally; it was:
- the first successful railway suspension bridge, disproving the general opinion then that suspension bridges could not handle trains,
- the first bridge that started John A. Roebling's distinctive style,
- part of the Underground Railroad,
- made a symbol of inspiration for the United States in its rebuilding after the civil war.
Please take a look and leave your comments at Wikipedia:Peer review/Niagara Falls Suspension Bridge/archive1. Thank you.

Gerald Desmond Bridge (2020-present) Has No Rating YetEdit
Gerald Desmond Bridge (2020-present) recently got split away from Gerald Desmond Bridge (1968-2020), and it has no ratings from this group. Can someone here please rate it, because I don't know how to mark it so it can be rated. Because of this split, Gerald Desmond Bridge (1968-2020) may need to be reassessed. Thank you.
