It is a true symbol of the strength and power of the Glasgow regeneration initiative, something that we at Halcrow are very proud to be involved with

Regional managing director

Project director, Iain Salisbury talks about the bridge in 2006.

Providing an important link to Glasgow’s Pacific Quay, the £20 million Clyde Arc Bridge over the River Clyde has played a key part in turning this run-down part of the city into a thriving centre for creative and media businesses.

The Clyde Arc provides a new, striking and highly visible landmark addition to the River Clyde in central Glasgow.  By night, coloured architectural lighting is directed upwards to reflect from the downward facing diamond sections which increases the arch’s dramatic effect.
