Foreland bridge
The foreland bridge is the section of a bridge leading over a river or a strait that is still on land. The part of the bridge that crosses the water is called the main bridge, river bridge, or stream bridge.
The foreshore bridges, which are often in the flood bed, usually have shorter openings and simpler structures than the main bridge with comparatively large spans . Many of the Rhine bridges and Elbe bridges can serve as examples .
Not all approach bridges are referred to as approach bridges, as bridges can be named according to different aspects, such as the type of traffic route over the bridge, location, form of construction or material. The rows of arches leading from the high bank to the river bridge are often referred to as viaducts or the structures leading up to a high bridge as ramp bridges.
