Wikipediaen.wikipedia.org › wiki › Ford_(crossing) Ford (crossing) - Wikipedia Fords may be impassable during high water. A low-water crossing is a low bridge that allows crossing over a river or stream when water is low but may be treated as a ford when the river is high and water covers the crossing. The word ford is both a noun (describing the water crossing itself) and a verb (describing the act of crossing a ford).
