It has metal cabling for Parabolic Suspension and vertical stays, with metal grate deck. Metal pipes forming rectangular arches support the main cables at either end of the bridge.
A metal pipe 'bollard' on either end reduces traffic to foot or pedal-powered. Limited sway on this bridge, that is about 30 metres long.
There are a few houses on the Back Germantown Road, so this would be a good alternative short walk to Bright, compared to a long drive around. The riverside walk is very pleasant for tourists.
