The fear of crossing a bridge. Sometimes coupled with a fear of heights, the fear of crossing bridges is more specifically about structures made by human hands. Those with anxieties over bridges are often also afraid of lookout towers, roller coasters, etc.

Gephyrophobia
An abnormal and persistent fear of crossing bridges. Sufferers of this phobia experience undue anxiety even though they realize their fear is irrational. Their fear may result partly from the fear of enclosure (claustrophobia) or the fear of heights (acrophobia). Phobic drivers may worry about being in an accident in busy traffic or losing control of their vehicles. High bridges over waterways and gorges can be especially intimidating, as can be very long or very narrow bridges.
