Trinity Bridge, Footbridge and multi-way bridge in Greater Manchester, England
Trinity Bridge spans the River Irwell with a 54-meter main section featuring a prominent white pylon that rises 41 meters into the sky.
Completed in 1995, the bridge represents Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava's first and only completed project in the United Kingdom.
The bridge connects the cities of Manchester and Salford while deriving its name from the neighboring Trinity Church that marks the local identity.
The structure includes a 4-meter-wide pedestrian path with clay block paving, linking Albert Bridge House to the Lowry Hotel and Quay Street.
The engineering incorporates cables anchored within apertures in the pylon surface, which tilts at a precise 60-degree angle.
