#SSDA2024 – Tommy Taylor Memorial Bridge, Barnsley was a NATIONAL FINALIST Judges’ comment: “This cable-stayed footbridge connects the town square with the transport interchange. Triangular steel pylon legs, and a trapezoidal deck shape give an enhanced aesthetic to the bridge. Splayed staircases and a wide bridge deck allow for high throughput, such as on match days for Barnsley Football Club. Tommy Taylor Memorial Bridge, is a new landmark in the centre of Barnsley.” Congratulations to: Arcadis, Waterman Group, Keltbray, Barnsley Council https://ow.ly/XC1T50TJJuh
