Bridges in motion



































These images of the Gateshead Millennium Bridge - by Wilkinson Eyre Architects (from this site) show the bridge in an open and closed position. The website has a photo of the pivot that enables this bridge to turn to let either pedestrians cross, or to let ships pass underneath. There are some videos on YouTube.

Check out also this unfurling bridge.
