The Brewery Wharf Bridge connects the city center to a range of restaurants,
shopping centers and cafes. It has contributed a lot to the touristic
development of the city as well as its commercial growth.
The bridge has a span of over 10 m, essentially taking the form of a cable
stay and suspension structure. The deck of the Brewery Wharf Bridge is built
from pre cast reinforced concrete in two sections, supported every 2.5
meters. A 4 meter tall tower is cast at one end of the bridge, covered at the
end with a layer of white painted metal in order to protect the concrete used in
the foundation. There are tension cables attached to the tower as well as to
the other bank of the bridge so the bridge has stability and strenght.
Furthermore, a supporting ground beam to the anchoring foundation holds the
tower back.
