Pooley Bridge, Road bridge in Pooley Bridge, United Kingdom.
The new stainless steel bridge spans 40 meters across the River Eamont, connecting the northern and southern parts of Pooley Bridge village.
The original stone bridge from 1764 served the community for over 250 years until Storm Desmond caused its complete destruction in December 2015.
The bridge marks the entrance to the Lake District National Park and provides access to the Ullswater 'Steamers' ferry services.
The structure accommodates one traffic lane and two pedestrian walkways, with widths varying between 7.5 and 9.5 meters across its span.
This bridge represents the first stainless steel road bridge in the United Kingdom, featuring an open-spandrel arch design above the deck.
