British Armys new self propelled bridges. It is now revealed that two new bridging

British Armys new self propelled bridges. It is now revealed that two new bridging methods have been used by the British Army in Europe and are now being used extensively in Burma for crossing small rivers and canals, surmounting anti-tank ditches and concrete emplacements, and forming ramps for scaling cliffs and other obstacles. For supporting a bridge strong enough to take 38 tons is used. The bridge is fitted to the top of the tank by supports, and an arm worked by hydraulic pressure on the front of the tank lifts the bridge clear of the supports, brings it over and deposits it across the gap to be bridged. The Ark 2 bridge, of which the latest form is known as the Twaby has a superstructure on which are built two ramps which can be dropped down one front and one rear of the tank. On reaching anti-tank ditch, the Twaby is ditched in it and the ramps are let down to the bridge. An earlier form of the Ark carries one ramp in front which can be placed in position for scaling purposes. Picture shows, a scissors bridge laid over a river on the road to Tilburg. June 1945
