Many bridges are NOT supported by a roller - however of those that NEED this type of design, if both ends were fixed solid - then as the bridge expanded and contracted with temperature, it would be forced to buckle in heat - or suffer extreme stresses when cooling - possibly to the point of structural failure and/or uprooting of the foundations of one or both sides.
