These photos are a good example of the sequence of bridges put into place over time. The photos are in reverse order from the original source. They show the installation of a treadway bridge as the first step (Photo 45). The second step is the construction of a sturdier Bailey bridge (Photo 44a, looking the opposite direction in the same location). Finally, a steel stringer bridge is constructed, with the same dirt surface as the approaching road (Photo 44).
