null · July 14th, 2005, 04:41 AM

so,which country?

Bitxofo · July 14th, 2005, 04:49 AM

Russia, I presume...

addisonwesley · July 14th, 2005, 05:24 AM

Italy? Do the bridges in Venice count?

Steijn · July 17th, 2005, 06:18 AM

The Netherlands, compared to it's size?

zonie · July 17th, 2005, 08:03 AM

If you're speaking of any kind of bridges, China is my guess.

Chibcha2k · July 17th, 2005, 08:18 AM

I say Brasil...or even Colombia have a large amount of bridges

***Blue_Sky*** · July 17th, 2005, 08:45 AM

I Would say Indonesia...
Since it is the largest island country in the world

I don't know about small bridges, but Denmark must be the country which has the most large bridges per capita.

John-Claude · July 17th, 2005, 02:55 PM

Maybe Switzerland. But I guess they prefer to rely on tunnels.

sts · July 17th, 2005, 03:16 PM

Maybe Italy..

CborG · July 17th, 2005, 03:19 PM

I think That china has the most bridges overall, and holland the most bridges per capita.

Matthijs · July 22nd, 2005, 02:12 AM

Do you think?
China may have more inhabitants because it is more densely populated, but I think the United States could have more bridges.

sirhc8 · July 22nd, 2005, 05:49 AM

Yeah, it'd definitely be the States given its size and level of development.

zonie · July 22nd, 2005, 07:18 AM

But the States isn't old enough... it hasn't been building bridges for nearly long enough to match China in quantity. Also, more people = more bridges needed, generally of course.

***Chad*** · July 22nd, 2005, 07:25 AM

Perhaps The US?, if not compare th the size of the country, only taking about number of bridges alone.

sanhen · July 22nd, 2005, 07:37 AM

I think that should be Indonesia... 16 thousand islands mean a lot of inland waterways.. 220 million populations, 4th in the world means heaps of cities and villages..

Jampacked SpecialExp · July 22nd, 2005, 10:35 PM

I don't think Indonesia's infrastructure is developed so much.

Venice doesn't has soo much bridges in total numbers. Amsterdam has more. And Hamburg has even more than both towns combined.

It is really hard to name the country with the most bridges, because I doubt that every country or region collects statistical data of their amount of bridges. Bridges are also not just bridging water, but also roads, highways, valleys and sometimes even bridges.

^
I even think its impossible to know what country has most bridges

It could be easyer to know more specifical data: highway bridges, river bridges...
