The Three Bridges
The Three Bridges, crossing the Firth of Forth, are an impressive sight. Standing shoulder to shoulder across the water. The first built of the three in 1890 is the iconic Rail Bridge, known around the world as a wonderful feat of engineering. With its Cantalever design, it’s 100 meter high of Scotland to the Kingdom of Fife and beyond.
The Forth Road Bridge was the second bridge to be built and was opened in 1964 by her Majesty The Queen. It was the longest span suspension bridge outside of America and is now the 4th longest in the world.
What’s more, there’s a main span of 1006 meters between its two towers. A truly magnificent sight. The Queensferry Crossing which opened in 2017 is the latest of The Three Bridges but certainly no less impressive than it’s neighbours.
It is a three-tower cable stayed structure spanning 2.7KM making it the longest and largest of its kind in the world. It has a slender beauty and strength, truly deserving of the paraphrase – A Bridge To The Future.
