  1. Hi,

    A floating suspension bridge is a misnomer.
    A floating bridge is also known as a pontoon bridge – the boats as you state are really ‘bridge pontoons’ Decades ago there was a ‘traffic pontoon bridge’ to the north coast.
    In a suspension bridge the deck is usually suspended high above terrain or water by means of large cables running over high towers and anchored to huge anchor blocks or structures at each end.
