Abstract

Rivers crossing is usually on bridges and culverts for vehicle and walkways for people. These arrangements are costly. If the traffic of people and vehicles is large enough expense can be justified. For low traffic or seasonal river crossings arrangement can be achieved by simpler methods. The paper describes low water stream crossings that allow the vehicle under certain conditions and people. These arrangements are recommended when disruption is possible.
