Bridges tend to be viaducts or aqueducts. (These names are derived from Latin).

A viaduct carries a road or a rail track, and is used by, respectively, road or rail vehicles.

An aqueduct carries water. This might be a fairly small stream, carrying water from a reservoir to a town; but a large aqueduct can carry a canal on which boats and barges can travel.

The ancient Romans build some famous viaducts for water supply; and in England a number of the canals built during the Industrial Revolution used magnificent aqueducts to cross valleys.
