List of Roman bridges

Finally, incidences where only inscriptions lay testimony to a former Roman bridge are also included.

[2] An even larger compilation of more than 900 Roman bridges (as of 2011) is offered by the Italian scholar Galliazzo, who is used here only selectively.

Bridges are particularly difficult to classify as they, more than other structures, are subject to wear, on account of war and the impact of natural elements.

Thus, the majority of bridges listed below can be assumed to include medieval or (early) modern modifications, replacements or extensions, to a small or large extent.

As an alternative to ferry services, the Roman army often made use of pontoon bridges, along with timber structures, for river crossings.
