This bridge is very amazing since this bridge is designed with the concept of artistic and modern. This bridge looks so beautiful and the strength is very powerful to hold the flood. Designed by the Queensland division of Australia’s Cox Rayner Architects with Arup, the £35.5 million pedestrian and cycle bridge connects Brisbane’s Central Business District with the city’s South Bank and its major cultural precinct. This bridge can be passed by vehicles or walking people. It is very safe to walk in this bridge. Measuring 470 meters long and 6.5 meters wide, the Kurilpa Bridge has several viewing decks and a full length canopy, both of which are supported by a secondary tensegrity structure. This building is also supported by tough poles and base. The frame of this building is made of good quality materials. At night, the bridge will be lit with a sophisticated LED lighting scheme which can be programmed to produce an array of different lighting effects. In most lighting configurations, 100 per cent of the power will be provided by solar energy with any surplus power returned to the main grid. This bridge will have colorful view in the night and it can be enjoyed comfortably from far and near.
