Basically, this would be a type of mobile overpass to solve the woes of road construction. It would have to be large enough to hold a decent size construction crew, and strong enough to support your average car (larger vehicles could be directed into the other lane). This way, traffic wouldn't get
clogged up when a two or three lane highway closes down to one.
Not exactly what I had in mind, but think of the pedestrians.

I think you may have an idea here. Not terribly well
written, but I get the basics, I think. |

Some kind of bridge that starts in front of the site, and ends behind it, thus letting cars go over the site? Nice idea. How would it cope with curves? |

wotcha want is a pair of long ramps with a Bailey bridge or the like, spanning the gap. Come to think of it you could add a couple extra pieces to the old Meccano BB set and do it all like that; ramps length determined by road speed. huh... [+] |

A couple of car-transporters in the loading position and a Bailey bridge between 'em. |

For the fast lane, maybe just an up-ramp and a down ramp. with a gap in the middle to fly over ? |

"You must be traveling at at least 100 kph to use this lane....." |

This would have been useful at Arnhem, in 1944. |

Coulda sworn I annoed and linked to this before work this morning. (+) The military has portable bridge designs that could easily be modified to suit this need. |
