Is this really a cantilever bridge? I thought it was an iron arch bridge. - Jmabel | Talk 08:09, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
I have rewritten large portions of this article and added inline citations to everything I could. There's still more to expand on with the bridge's history, but I will have to come back to that later. Please comment on the changes here and notify me on my talk page if I have made any errors. Thank you. Cumulus Clouds 20:35, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
The quoted source is incorrect. Time to impact of a free-falling object from a given height near the Earth's surface, disregarding air drag (minor) is approximately h (in feet) = 16t2. Solving for 180 feet gives t = about 3.354 seconds. Acceleration = about 32t feet per second per second, so in 3.354 seconds, the object reaches = 107.32 ft/sec, or about 73 mph vs. the 55 mph reported. Also, their own figures on impact are incorrect. 55 mph = about 81 ft/sec. x 165lbs = 13,365 ft-lb/sec, not the 28,000 quoted. If we use the figures given in this post of 107'/sec x 165 lb, we get 17,655, still far less than 28,000. Need a more accurate source for this section.

Intro is given in metric, converted to English. Per the Manual of Style, "# For US-related articles, the main units are US units; for example, 10 miles (16 km)." Since the bridge is in Seattle, Washington, intro should be revised accordingly: US units, with conversion to metric. (infobox also) Unimaginative Username ( talk) 09:00, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
Done
One note about the article that confused me right away. I was expecting an article on a bridge in New York, not the Seattle area. I suggest adding a hatnote to redirect people to George Washington Bridge.
If the lead sentence is correct when saying the bridge is "commonly called the Aurora Bridge", is there a good reason that the article title isn't " Aurora Bridge", per WP:COMMONNAME? — BarrelProof ( talk) 15:25, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
