This new 115 m long bridge for pedestrians and cyclists will connect Govan (south of the river Clyde) and Partick (north, next to the Riverside Museum).
The pylon is inspired by the historic harbour cranes on the banks of the River Clyde. It will be one of the largest moveable pedestrian bridges in Europe.
The main span consists of 2 closed main girders and a deck slab supported by longitudinal and transverse stiffeners. This section has a length of 95 m. The fixed approach bridge is 25 m long.
Victor Buyck Steel Construction will deliver the bridge in 2 complete sections to minimise the impact on the site and schedule.
