Squiggly Bridge - River Clyde

This bridge over the River Clyde in Glasgow is officially called the Tradeston Bridge.  It cost £7 million and was opened in 2009.  I like that we have our own bridge (I live in Tradeston) but everybody in Glasgow would know this as the Squiggly Bridge.

This link to the architect's website provides a great time-line of the construction of the bridge and all the necessary technical information.





The bridge can be found at Clyde Place on the south bank and the Broomielaw on the North.
