Ballachulish Bridge, Truss road bridge in Highland, Scotland.
The Ballachulish Bridge spans across the narrows between Loch Leven and Loch Linnhe, connecting North and South Ballachulish villages in the Scottish Highlands.
The Cleveland Bridge & Engineering Company completed the construction of this 294-meter steel bridge in 1975, replacing the previous ferry service.
The bridge stands as an example of mid-20th century engineering, designed by W.A. Fairhurst and Partners from Newcastle upon Tyne.
The bridge carries the A82 trunk road without toll charges, serving as a primary transportation route between Glasgow and Inverness through the Highland region.
The bridge features a through steel truss construction with fabricated box chords, supporting both vehicle lanes and pedestrian pathways across the water.
