Millenium Bridge
The Millennium Bridge was designed by Wilkinson Eyre Architects and built by Gifford, it was opened on the 17th September 2000.
Nicknamed the Blinking eye, it is the worlds first and only tilting bridge, that costs only £3.60 to tilt the bridge due to the enviromental design of the bridge.
It serves both the walking public and the cycling public, with 2 parts of the bridge that serve them.
It was lifted into place using the massive Asian Hercules II, one of the worlds largest floating cranes.
