Pastaza River - Bridges

Bridges

In Ecuador, there are very few bridges across the Pastaza. The most significant ones are in Tungurahua province - namely a large span over the exact point of headwaters, just north of BaƱos, and the secondary span created by the Agoyan dam. After this, bridges tend to be of the suspension type, suitable for foot or small vehicle passage only. However, it is notable that the Pastaza can be forded during the dry season in a 4x4 truck, going across the floodplains below the town of Mera.

Famous quotes containing the word bridges:

    Have faith, and a score of hearts will show
    Their faith in your word and deed.
    —Madeline Bridges (fl. C. 1840)

    And Reason kens he herits in
    A haunted house. Tenants unknown
    Assert their squalid lease of sin
    With earlier title than his own.
    —Robert Bridges (1844–1930)

    When Death to either shall come—
    I pray it be first to me.
    —Robert Bridges (1844–1930)
