Contractor Edmund Nuttall has begun building Glasgow's new US$35 million Finnieston Bridge. The Halcrow-designed structure is the River Clyde's first new crossing in more than 30 years. It will carry two lanes for public transport together with two lanes for other vehicles. One of the key features of the 100m span is a capability to cope with the addition of a light transport system, such as a tram, in the future. The bridge is funded by Scottish Enterprise Glasgow and Glasgow City Council.
