| Bicyclists
travel on the bike path across the I-90 floating bridge in Seattle,
Washington. It is one of the longest floating bridges in the world.
The depth of Lake Washington makes a pontoon bridge more economical
than one with piers to the lake bottom. The bike path is a vital connection
between the eastern suburbs and the city of Seattle, and is heavily
used. Access to bridges is one of the most important issues for pedestrians
and bicyclists.
