"Residents of more than 30 villages in Rayagada district heaved a sigh of relief after the administration revoked its decision to close the mishap-prone hanging bridge over Nagavali river. The district administration had decided to close the bridge for public till its renovation following a spate of fatal mishaps involving tourists at the site… the bridge became a major attraction for tourists. With the rise in tourist footfall, the number of mishaps near the bridge too increased."

Notes:

• Completed December 2011, but opened March 31, 2012. At the time it opened, held record as the "longest highest" bridge in that it had the longest main span of any of the highest bridges in the world (it was considered the sixth-highest bridge in 2012).

Notes:

• This bridge "goes viral" every few years based on some (apparently spurious) claim that it was built to resemble London's Tower Bridge. Maybe some aspects of its design were mildly inspired by London's Tower Bridge, but there is universal agreement that the Huayang bridge does not resemble the Tower Bridge.

Notes:

• Large, unconventional suspension bridge with a large underspanned section, walkways running along the tops of the main cables, and rigid suspenders.

External Links:

• CONSOL Energy Wing Tip Bridge - Mott MacDonald. "Each end of the bridge passes through a V-shaped structure made of six steel masts, raked outward at the top. Between the masts and abutments, the cables are splayed to provide extra stability against lateral motion. The resemblance of the slanting masts to the wing tip feathers of a flying eagle inspired the name Wing Tip Bridge… A unique feature of the bridge is that pedestrians can cross in one of two ways: on a traditional level deck or on secondary walkways that follow the cables and pass above and then below the deck, sometimes at an angle of up to 10 degrees."
• Consol Energy Wingtip Bridge (Boy Scouts Bridge) - schlaich bergermann partner. "The design of the bridge was to be adventurous and the crossing of the bridge was to be an experience in itself. To that end, the scouts are able to walk not only on the bridge deck but also along the cables of the bridge on a steel walkway. The cables pass over the tops of the masts and below the main deck of the bridge allowing the scouts to see the bridge from multiple perspectives. The masts are spread to form a V in section which evokes the tips of eagle’s wings, the symbol of the Boy Scouts."
