The powered bridge[1] is a type of Combine force field platform used inside the Citadel acting as a means of linkage for areas with recessed obstacles in between.

Overview[edit]

Powered bridges are prevalent in the Citadel in Half-Life 2: Episode One, where Gordon Freeman must reactivate several deactivated ones in order to proceed. They can only be activated when two Power Generators within the immediate vicinity are activated by inserting Combine Energy Balls taken from power streams into them. With one generator restarted, one side of the force field bridge will be generated, indicated by emitter lights on either end. These indicators bear a striking resemblance to Combine locks. It is seen within the Citadel Core that the bridges can be bisected, and each half is able to rotate without the need for extra machinery at the broke up end to move into different positions.
