Humber bridge worries me. Not just the outrageous cost, i always feel if I suddenly veered left I could clear the barrier and drop into the drink. The bridge deck is higher than the path.
The bridge on the M90 near Perth. Bloody hate it always feel like I’m going over the edge and feels a hell of a lot higher than it probably is. Sorry I don’t know its name.
I loved the Milau viaduct but my wife had her eyes shut on the entire southbound leg. Northbound she at least kept her eyes open but looked dead ahead the whole time.
That would be the Friarton Bridge.at Perth.Its often subject to cross winds and the barriers are not high.I straddle the lanes when in a bus much to the chagrin of the speeding thundering juggernaut blah blah drivers.

Just before i done my first trip round Europe my mate was telling me about these really high bridges in france italy etc and how the guard rails are pretty much just a token gesture and so i started having these thoughts that im gonna have some kind of violent blow out causing me to veer to towards the rails and off the side…

The friarton bridge is the one that bothers me, I’m fine heading south but northbound when there’s a breeze I hate it. Other bridges I’m fine with its strange.
I never think about it tbh, well, not the height anyway. However, when going over some bridges like the Runcorn bridge with a double decker, I’m always a bit worried that I’ll catch those supports that come at an angle…
When I first took a double deck trailer to Newcastle, I moved over to the 2nd lane

I’ve gone all emotional, MARK DIXON/GOD. I do hope he lets me clean the inside of his lorry.
Hi have walked across Forth road bridge and Humber bridge both move all the time, think some would never go across in waggon if you see the movement. cheer’s bob

That reminds me of the M1 Junction 34 at Sheffield Tinsley. (Meadowhall)
The double decked Tinsley viaduct is often closed to high siders
in windy weather and they must travel on the lower deck. If
you stop on the lower deck in heavy traffic you can get bounced
around all over the place.
