- In 1806, the first bridge [between Porto and Gaia] to be expressly designed as such as was inaugurated. It consisted of 20 boats laid side by side, anchored to the bottom of the river upstream and downsteam, over which ran a road to permit the passage of people, beasts and carts. This was a carefully constructed bridge: in his Descripção Topographica de Vila Nova de Gaya [1861] João António Monteiro de Azevedo commended the way the bridge "rose and fell with the tides, could be opened and closed to allow passage of large river traffic, and finally could be dismantled and re-established when the vicissitudes of the river demanded it."
