Leith Street Footbridge, Edinburgh
This high profile footbridge in central Edinburgh was a design and construct, lump sum fixed price project with the Client's novated design team.
The new structure links the St James shopping centre with Leith Street and the Nottingham Place Terminal of the Greenside Place car park.
The bridge itself is 'S' shaped in plan and was constructed in steel and glass.
The contract also included the installation of passenger lifts at the Nottingham Place terminal, together with major structural alterations, cladding and finishes.
Traffic and pedestrian management were major challenges at this busy location, particularly during removal of the existing footbridge and installation of the new structure.
