The parts that will build the connecting pieces between the bridge side halves:
Sorting out the side halves:
First halve. 2 pieces make 1 halve bridge side piece:
2 connected to the middle piece:
One side ready, one to go:
Connecting top rods:
And mounted:
Both sides ready:

Using 2 restpieces to line up the new shortened piece:
2 modified with one original:
Set of 5 for one halve floor:
The Trumpeter saw I use for this modification:
Mounting the new pieces:
To one half floor:
And both pieces ready to mount:
The mounting piece:
Glued to one halve:
And the second piece, ready to be glued to the first:
And the mockup looks like this. I am satisfied!:
The end piers:
And a module mockup with the bridge:
Right side with the short bridge:
Middle where one of two Central valley bridges will come:
Left where the second Central Valley bridge will be:
