A comparable example of an unusual type of moveable bridge in Europe is the transporter bridge, where a platform suspended by cables from tall towers and superstructure is carried on an overhead framework.

The transporter bridge was the original solution to spanning the mouth of a river or entrance to a harbour and also served as a monumental gateway.
