Lowry Salford Quays Millennium Lift Footbridge at dusk
Lowry Salford Quays Millennium Lift Footbridge at dusk, early evening. The Salford Quays lift bridge or Salford Quays Millennium footbridge is a long vertical lift bridge bridge spanning the Manchester Ship Canal in Salford, Greater Manchester, England. The bridge, which was completed in 2000, is near the terminus of the ship canal at the old Manchester Docks. It links Salford Quays to MediaCityUK and has a lift of 18 metres, allowing large watercraft to pass beneath. The bridge features prominently on the backdrop for the BBC North West Tonight television news programme, which also shows The Lowry and MediaCityUK.
