Auchenshuggle Bridge, Road bridge over River Clyde in Glasgow, Scotland
The Auchenshuggle Bridge carries three lanes in each direction of the M74 motorway, supported by reinforced concrete structures at both ends.
The bridge opened in 2011 as part of the M74 northern extension project, completing a section of Glasgow's transportation infrastructure development plan.
The name Auchenshuggle derives from Scottish Gaelic 'Achadh an t-Seagail', translating to 'the rye field' in English.
A footbridge underneath the motorway structure allows pedestrians and cyclists to use the Clyde Walkway and National Cycle Route 75.
Engineers employed Europe's largest mobile crane during construction to position the steel box girder beams of the bridge's superstructure.
