Google Sightseeing takes you on tour of the world as seen from satellite, using the free Google Earth program, or Google Maps in your web browser. Each weekday your guides James and Alex present new weird and wonderful sights as suggested by readers.
Following on from our previously posted double bridge and missed bridge, Google Sightseeing is proud to present, the double missed bridge!
Someone really needs to fire those engineers…

I took some ground level shots:...”
It’s actually a triple if you count the railroad bridge to the left
Yes. This is actually an interesting place, because you can:
follow the river west to a dam, which is only slightly off: pretty big, too!
follow the river east to an OK bridge
There is also a Placemark: plane in flight / Google Earth along with two missed bridges further down (up?) that river. It looks familiar, so it may have been posted in the planes in flight megapost.
just to the east is this wonderfully crazy messup:

Just outside the airport is this nice design:

And the airport itself is misaligned, giving some interesting ghost planes:

and

There’s another plane in flight (West this time) near some more misalignment places:

Continues through this airport:

HA didn’t realize this was nearby until I clicked the google link. I cross that bridge all the time.
There seems to be Placemark: another plane in flight / Google Earth…
Here is yet another plane off to the west:

And if you go even further to the west you can find this neat 4(?) lane underground highway tunnel thing.

Sweet, the highway (I-10) actually takes a nice stretch in a tunnel. I’ve never seen it from a birds eye view though. That is cool.
Check out this misaligned freeway:
Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth
the misalignment exactly manages to connect the northbound lanes with
the southbound lanes! In fact, I’m willing to bet that this is the source for all of the misalignments in this post. Presumably an automated registration algorithm picked the wrong lanes of the freeway to match up, forcing the
misalignment (I assume that someone wouldn’t have been stupid enough to do this manually!)
here’s another small tunnel which is maybe 1.5 mile further down the goden gate bridge…
it is just a small tunnes but at least it IS a tunnel
Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth
it’s fixed
