Question

What body of water has the most bridges crossing it? I'm assuming it will be a river.?

Answer 1

the Mississippi clocks in at 221 bridges

Answer 2

The Mississippi River at 2300 miles long HAS to have the most bridges.

Answer 3

one possibility:

Harlem River, New York City

Ward's Island Bridge

Triborough Bridge

Willis Avenue Bridge

3rd Avenue Bridge

Park Avenue Bridge

Madison Avenue Bridge

145th Street Bridge

Macombs Dam Bridge

High Bridge

Alexander Hamilton Bridge

Washington Bridge

University Heights Bridge

Broadway Bridge

Henry Hudson Bridge

Spuyten Duyvil Bridge

I'd also check London...

edit: from Wikipedia:

list of crossings of the River Thames, downstream first, including bridges, tunnels and ferries. In all, there are 214 bridges, 17 tunnels, six public ferries but not one ford.

So the Thames wins.

Answer 4

It looks like the champion is the Thames.

I  have counted only 200  for the Seine in France, 37 in Paris.

Answer 5

Maybe the River Thames that runs through London?  214 bridges and 17 tunnels!
