Patrick measured this ribbon footbridge as having a main span of 300 feet. The deck lies directly on the main cables. This type of construction is typically used for less substantial footbridges but is also used for long span footbridges. There is nothing insubstantial about the components of this bridge.
Patrick notes that his bridge counter board measures 5 inches by 10 inches.
