Finally

I finally figured out a solution to making my latest bridge in Bridge It. I was almost to the point of giving up. I studied so many bridge structure images, and none of them actually worked for the game. I was really starting to get a little pissed off.

I got this crazy idea to make my road slope up, and than down. I added a little support, and it stood. I was so happy. It was time to hit the play button, and see if it held up to the train crossing it. The train gets to the bridge, and goes straight into the river. I guess it didn't like my idea.  

Luckily my support bar ran right across where the road would be straight. I replaced the iron bars with road decking, and crossed my fingers. It still stood, and once again it was time to hit play to see if the bridge could withstand the weight of the train.

The train successfully crosses the bridge, and crosses back over with no problems. It was time to celebrate.  I am now moving on to level 8 in the medium level.  



The crazy thing is the whole time I was way over thinking how complex my bridge needed to be. I kept running out of money, and was getting frustrated. I ended up solving the solution to the bridge by barely even using half my budget.
