Tradeston Footbridge

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

The Tradeston Footbridge was completed in 2008. It's a balanced canter lever design with a 48 m main span and two 25 m side spans. The curved construction makes the crossing more interesting for pedestrians but also allows extra central height for boats without having to be overly steep.
