The swinging section of the Barrow Viaduct on the former Dublin, Wicklow and Wexford branch railway to New Ross and Waterford. This bridge over the tidal River Barrow has been retained for use as part of the New Ross Greenway.

The lifting bascule section of Ferrymountgarret bridge no longer operates so you need to be careful of headroom at high tide when passing through this section of the tidal River Barrow above New Ross. This bridge was opened with a Scherzer mechanism lifting span on November 7, 1929 and completed at a cost of £22,500. It is understood that it was open to pedestrian traffic from May 1929.
