Scale Lane Footbridge

Scale Lane Footbridge is an apostrophe-shaped pedestrian swing bridge in Hull, England.

The bridge has a rotating mechanism, allowing it to swing open horizontally, letting vessels pass beneath on the River Hull.

Planning for the black steel Scale Lane Footbridge began in 2005, and McDowell+Benedetti won a competition.

[5] Rowan Moore from The Guardian has said the bridge is designed in the style of Santiago Calatrava.
