Pedestrian Bridge - Brisbane

The Brisbane River runs through downtown Brisbane, Australia. Even though the river is fairly wide, several bridges make it easy for pedestrians to cross. In fact, two of the bridges are for pedestrians and bicycles only. Both of these pedestrian bridges employ creative architecture, and both provide shade for the pedestrians. The bridge shown here, the Kurilpa Bridge, is reminiscent of the masts and riggings on a sailing ship. This bridge opened in October 2009, just one year prior to my visit.
