===Extradosed bridge=== [[File:Twinkle_Kisogawa_bridge02.jpg|thumb|right|The Twinkle-Kisogawa is an extradosed design, with long gaps between the cable supported sections.]] An [[extradosed bridge]] is a cable-stayed bridge with a more substantial bridge deck that, being stiffer and stronger, allows the cables to be omitted close to the tower and for the towers to be lower in proportion to the span. The first extradosed bridges were the [[Ganter Bridge]] and [[Sunniberg Bridge]] in Switzerland. The first extradosed bridge in the United States, the [[Pearl Harbor Memorial Bridge (Connecticut)|Pearl Harbor Memorial Bridge]] was built to carry I-95 across the Quinnipiac River in New Haven, Connecticut, opening in June 2012.
