Arc Clyde Bridge

Dougie Clyde is one of the most original sights of the Scottish city of Glasgow. This is a bridge across the River Clyde, near the Science Center. Its official opening took place on September 18, 2006 with the participation of local authorities. A characteristic feature of the design is a curved design - the bridge crosses the river at an angle.

The bridge was designed by the architects of Edmund Nuttall, the concrete slabs were cast at a local factory. Construction of the structure began in 2003 and lasted until 2006, with work estimated at around £20,000. According to experts, the building should stand for about 120 years.

The main span of the bridge is made of steel in the form of an arch, its length is 96 meters. The central spans are located at a distance of 36.5 meters from each other. The total length of the structure is 169 meters. On the bridge there are two pedestrian paths, 11 meters wide, as well as a road with four lanes.
