Not might, it is this. -bruch, -bruck and -brück are something different though. While being related to the english "brook", a Bruch is swampland. -bruck or -brück however indicate a bridge (like the German word for bridge, Brücke).

Though "bridge" can also refer to a board walk through swampland...
