The Kylesku Bridge (officially known since 2019 by its Gaelic name Drochaid a' Chaolais Chumhaing[1]) is a distinctively curved concrete box girder bridge in north-west Scotland that crosses Caolas Cumhann (Gaelic for "narrow strait", pronounced "Kyles Cuan"); the channel that connects Loch Glencoul and Loch Glendhu with Loch a' Chàirn Bhàin in Sutherland.
[2] In 2019, the bridge was classified by Historic Environment Scotland as a Category A structure, recognising it as "visually striking and technically innovative".
[2] It replaced the ferry between Kylesku and Kylestrome, which was approximately 400 metres (1,300 ft) to the east.
The bridge deck is at a height of 24 metres (79 ft) above high water to provide navigation for ships.
[2] The bridge is designed to be sympathetic to the surrounding country, and the approaches were chosen to minimise changes to the landscape.
