Just my clarification ... we are blessed just about all those bridge types except the gondola. First,on first glance 'movable' subsumes all the other movable types. if it is exclusive of those, I might suggest 'movable_other', or something similar (our former I-520 Evergreen Point bridge had a bulge, which had a 'retractable' span (see http://ww1.hdnux.com/photos/03/01/47/793032/3/628x471.jpg ). Also, when the bridge has multiple types of structures and spans, how is that addressed - i.e. beam, floating, truss, and viaduct probably simultaneously exist on the same named 'bridge, is each way segment named the same but separately? Or just the primary distinctive feature? Could you tag the I-90 Bridge from Seattle to Bellevue as an example (Tunnel - beam - viaduct - float - beam - etc.)?
