The Detroit Bridge
The Detroit Bridge
Looking along the deck of the 80-metre long former railway swingbridge which was moved and converted to a footbridge during the redevelopment of Salford Docks as they were transformed into Salford Quays. The bridge now crosses the Huron and Erie Basins, linking Harbour City and MediaCityUK with the residential area around Ontario Basin.
