During one of my recent travels, I was in a city where they were building a bridge across a wide river. I watched as brave men climbed onto tall towers that helped erect the gigantic structure that had been intricately designed by architects and engineers. It amazed me how people can build structures that span across water when there was nothing in place before. By building that bridge, people can travel more quickly to different places and goods can be delivered more efficiently. It’s hard to imagine getting to the airport by car without the Tsing Ma bridge or getting to Manhattan Island in New York City without their many bridges!
