Advice for MnDOT - Bridge Building Game

Just in case the folks at the MnDot forgot how to build a bridge. These are all 30 levels in the Bridge Building Game.
Funny thing is that I downloaded this game the day before the 35W bridge collapsed near my house.

Title:West Point Bridge Designer lol Description:do you dare go over it..??Title:Insane Swing Bridge Description:This is my solution to level 15 of Cryptic Sea's Bridge Building Game. I couldn't figure out how to make an actual bridge that would get across the water and onto the bump without connecting to the other side, so I built this swing, which requires precise timing.<br /><br />Okay, I want to add an explanation for the three different runs so you don't think I just messed up the first two times. The point was to demonstrate the precise timing required. The three runs are as follows:<br /><br />1. The train starts too soon and smashes through the swing while it's still too high<br />2. The train starts too late and comes off the swing at the wrong angle, getting stuck on the other edge<br />3. The train is started at just the right time, as the swing is beginning to descend, so that it can ramp off and make it to the other side.Title:The Impossible Bridge Description:To meet the challenges of building an enormous bridge, a design competition is held and unbelievable ideas are formulated.<br /> <br />Impossible Bridges:  <br />Denmark to Sweden : <br />THUR OCTOBER 4 9P et/pt : http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/channel/video/?source=4003Title:Bridge Building Game old lvl 1-13 Description:My solutions for Bridge Building game levels 1-13 old.Title:Bridge building game - New - Level 13 : How much can you take ?
