Architect was Javier Manterola

It is very strange because he has made several bridges in the city and known... just for a pedestrian bridge. This one:

And... it is only for pedestrians (and bikes)





Manterola has made several bridges on this city but I think his most important project is the second bridge to Cadiz.
Even if no Spanish undestanding, I recommend you to visit

They are too many photos.

In Google Earth 3D there is a plan about what will be that bridge.

Paddington Basin Footbridge

On a tiny scale compared to most of the bridges already pictured.

In its bridge state its nothing special but I love it in its stored and transition states.

Any "most beautiful bridge" list has to include the perennial favorite, the Golden Gate Bridge. All pics taken by me:

The architecture of the bridges around the world is impressive. All who have shown are great works. I, however, add a very modest bridge near Santiago de Compostela, Spain.

Gundián bridge.

It is a railway bridge built in 1958.



Photographs of the construction of the bridge
