With 16,000 people using the bridge each week, the Lagan Weir Footbridge is a “pivotal” part of a more sustainable approach to travelling around Belfast. Interestingly, on its first day, more than 160,000 people crossed it – more people than those who collectively visit Disney parks in a day in the US, Japan or Paris. The new bridge is a sleek, shiny high-tech design with an 8m wide walkway and stainless steel railings, and it features a multi-coloured illumination system. The bridge is supported on the existing weir buttresses using an innovative strut design that allows it to “float” above the river a few metres away from the Weir. The vertical profile is a continuous curved profile with ramps at a gradient of 1:20 while the horizontal alignment is also curved with a degree of a-symmetry. The new footbridge consists of structural steel, enveloped in aluminium cladding with a glass parapet on the east elevation and a stainless steel post and wire system on the west parapet. This high quality bridge project was completed in just six months to meet a deadline for the 2015 Tall Ships event.
The Lagan weir is a series of massive steel barriers which are used to keep the River Lagan at an artificially constant level during low tide. Otherwise the river mudflats are exposed and were considered unsightly as well as emitted a strong odour, particularly in the summer months. This engineering marvel also supports a lovely steel and glass bridge over the river. On a clear day, there's great views of the River.
Great place to take in the sights of the lagan River looking out towards the docks and it's not busy at all
Nice to see the big fish, but the views of the river are super ugly
Elegant modern footbridge with good photo opportunities on clear days.
Lovely bridge, especially when the lights lit up
You can see H&W from the bridge also the lake view.
The new Lagan Weir Pedestrian and Cycle Bridge was officially opened on 30 June 2015. It was still under construction when I visited the city in 2015 but this year I got the opportunity to use and photograph it. I must admit that I was impressed. Much better than the old bridge that it replaced.
Nice area for a walk
A newly refurbished walkthrough bridge that provides a scenic link between Belfast city centre and the SSE Arena.
