First photos of Spencer Dock Bridge released

By Sebastian J — Filed under: Infrastructure , , ,

al_a_spb_05Amanda Levete Architects today released first images of the completed Spencer Dock Bridge in Dublin. The 40 metre span bridge with its fluid lines and undulating concrete surface will take trams, traffic and pedestrians across the Royal Canal. The edges of the deck peel down to reveal a space for pedestrians to pause and take in views of the dock and Linear Park which is currently under construction.

The underside of the bridge merges with the piers in a single movement with joint lines in the concrete designed to accentuate the geometry of the form. The finish of the concrete provides high visibility against the dark water of the canal and at night the structure will be vibrantly lit from below giving the bridge a significant presence. Full press release and more images after the break. read more »
