Salford Quays lift bridge

Walk with me across this impressive bridge in my nearest city.

The Salford Quays lift bridge, also known as the Salford Quays Millennium footbridge or the Lowry bridge, is a 91.2-metre long vertical lift bridge spanning the Manchester Ship Canal between Salford and Trafford in Greater Manchester opened in 2000.

Hi Peter -no I have never seen it lift. In truth I have only been here twice times before and this was the longest time spent there at about 20 minutes at this spot. Yes, this area has changes massively over the last 10 years or so, especial with Media City just over the bridge and the Lowry Centre & Theatre just behind me here. Glad it brought back memories.
