The 130m pedestrian bridge has been designed to “snake” across the river by McDowell & Benedetti, meaning that it has required specific engineering to make the decking fit to the curved design, according to Hubert
Kwisthout, the director of Ecotimber, one of EWP’s parent companies.
Around 60m3 of FSC-certified cumaru timber it to be used in the manufacture of the decking, which is to be prefabricated off-site and delivered in panels.
