Question

The bridge which enables a road to pass under another obstruction is known as

Answer 1

The bridge type described in the given question is called Underbridge.

• Underbridge as the name suggests is a connecting structure built under some roadways or railway lines.
• It is called a low bridge because the reference taken is at a particular height from the ground level, and this bridge is below the reference.
• The existing roads or railways line below which the bridge is built stays accessible and underbridges provide access to other places.
• It crosses and conveys pathways below one transportation mode, unlike overbridges that cross above one transportation mode.
• For example, if the railway is at height and is a reference, the road constructed under it through the bridge is called an underbridge.
• Hence, underbridge is the correct answer here.
