Question for the ZooChatters...
The Cleveland Metroparks Zoo is located in the Brookside Park valley and is bisected by a large traffic bridge (the Fulton Road bridge) over it's Northern Trek area. Outgoing Cleveland Metroparks Zoo Director Steve Thomas has often said CMZ is the only U.S. zoo that has such a large structure spanning over the park. I've often taken his comment tongue-in-cheek, but have now began to wonder...

I've visited a lot of zoos. Some have had underpasses under roads (ie, Pittsburgh, Columbus) and some have had pedestrian bridges over roadways (Toledo, Cincinnati), but I'm beginning to wonder if Dr. Taylor's comments are not hyperbole. (A little more info on the bridge can be located here.)

So, I open the question to my fellow ZooChatters - is anyone aware of zoo that has a large bridge that bisects their park? Color me curious...
 
While I can think of other zoos with very large overpasses (Dallas comes to mind) I cannot think of any zoo crossed by a bridge quite like Cleveland's
