The Captain William Moore Bridge is an historic 300-foot (91 m) asymmetric single-pylon cable-stayed bridge on the Klondike Highway that spans the Moore Creek Gorge in the borough of Skagway, Alaska, United States, about 17 miles (27 km) north of the city of Skagway. Before the bridge was built in 1976, Whitehorse, Yukon, was only accessible from Skagway by the White Pass and Yukon Route railroad. The bridge connects Skagway to the Yukon highway network and allows traffic to pass over the Moore Creek Gorge, which flows along a fault line. To minimize bridge damage from earthquake movements along the fault line, the bridge was designed with anchors only at one end, which in this case was the south bank. Over the decades, heavy ore truck traffic weakened the bridge. In 2019 a replacement bur

  • Captain William Moore Bridge je most na Klondike Highway, vzdálený 27 km od obce Skagway ve státě Aljaška v USA. Jedná se o zavěšený most, který překonává soutěsku . Dlouhý je 34 m. Most byl vybudován v roce 1976 a na začátku 21. století se velmi značně zhoršil jeho technický stav. Jeho náhrada byla budována v letech 2016 až 2019, poté původní most začal sloužit pouze pro pěší.

Over the decades, heavy ore truck traffic weakened the bridge. In 2019 a replacement buried bridge located 150 feet west of the historic bridge was opened, and the 1976 cable-stayed bridge was repurposed as a pedestrian viewpoint and wayside historic attraction. It's historic and beautiful, and is the only cantilevered cable-stayed bridge in Alaska... (en)
