- Designed for pedestrians and cyclists rather than vehicular traffic
- Useful for crossing water/railways where there are no road bridges
- Allow safe crossing of busy roads
- Can also be used for walkways between buildings or in car parks
- Must be at least 1.2m wide (unless designed for maintenance work only), but can be as wide as needed
- Can be the simplest beam type with hand rails, or a through-truss with hand rails fixed to the two trusses
- Through-trusses useful if the bridge is to have overhead cover and sides with cladding or mesh (essential for road or rail crossings)
- Usually require stairways and ramps
