Park Square Bridge, Tram and tied-arch bridge in Sheffield, England
Park Square Bridge is a tram and tied-arch bridge made of steel and concrete in Sheffield that crosses a busy roundabout. It connects Commercial Street with the city center and handles both pedestrian and tram traffic daily.
The bridge was built in 1993 as part of Sheffield's Supertram system. It represented a major shift in how the city moved people through its center.
The bridge carries both pedestrians and trams across a major traffic intersection, making it a functional part of the everyday flow through Sheffield's center.
The bridge is accessible at all times and offers a clear view of the busy intersection below. Expect pedestrian and tram traffic during peak hours.
The structure uses tilted steel ribs that suspend the deck from the arch, creating a distinctive shape that many people cross without fully noticing. This engineering approach makes it stand out from typical bridge designs.
