Queensferry crossing.
Mar 29, 2017 06:07:19 #
The Queensferry Crossing is due to open in May 2017. The stunning, globally unique bridge forms the centrepiece of a major upgrade to the important cross-Forth transport corridor in the east of Scotland, representing a total Scottish Government investment of £1.35bn (at 2016 prices). The 1.7 miles (2.7km) structure will be the longest three-tower, cable-stayed bridge in the world and also by far the largest to feature cables which cross mid-span. This innovative design provides extra strength and stiffness, allowing the towers and the deck to be more slender and elegant.

I agree with the previous posts. This is a beautiful bridge and the photos of it are stunning. Thanks for posting, since I'll never have the opportunity to see it in person.
