        你知道台北市最重要的河流是哪一條嗎?世界知名的大城市,往往伴隨一條主要河川,淡水河、基隆河及新店溪是構成台北市景觀的重要要素,也是大台北地區居民生活中的一部分。橋樑,連結河岸兩旁民眾的交通往來,隨著橋樑的建設串聯起河岸居民的活動。透過橋樑演變的歷史,記錄我們曾經生長的世代,以及生活的經驗。

        鑑於河川與橋樑在居民生活中具有舉足輕重的份量,台北市政府新聞處出版的《台北市河川橋樑之旅》一書,邀請台灣大學地理環境資源學系副教授賴進貴、徐美玲等專家學者分別進行實地田野調查、資料蒐集、撰稿、攝影及繪圖,內容豐富、圖片精采、繪圖翔實。

        本書內容主要以河川與橋樑為兩大主軸,由人與環境的觀點,結合時間和空間,介紹河川、橋樑與當地居民生活的關係。幫助讀者認識台北市的發展歷程,了解河川橋樑與人類活動及開發建設之間的關聯。河川的內容包括台北盆地的主要河川及其支流的水文、地理景觀、生態情形;另從台北市跨河橋樑中挑選出二十二座具有代表性及歷史性的橋樑逐一介紹,讓讀者認識橋樑在不同時期所擔負的不同角色與功能。
