Kingsgate Bridge

Kingsgate Bridge is a reinforced concrete construction footbridge across the River Wear, in Durham, England.

[2] Kingsgate Bridge connects Bow Lane on the peninsula in the centre of Durham to Dunelm House on New Elvet, which building Arup's studio also contributed, and opened in 1966.

Kingsgate Bridge is thought to have been one of Arup's favourite designs of all: he had spent many hours working on every detail of the plans.

[4] The meeting point of the two halves is marked by a simple bronze expansion joint using a linear gear bearing.

[8] A bust of Arup, cast in resin, was installed on the side of Dunelm House, the students' union building adjacent to the bridge, in September 2011.
