Plan
              Improving accessibility
              and pedestrian movement
              with tapered deck.
              A key consideration in the design of the
              generic footbridge was the orientation
              of the main components of the stair, lift,
              and deck. The stair and lift are set back
              from the deck to allow landing spaces,
              and the connection between the landings
              and deck is tapered to allow for a more
              generous space at these key points.

              The tapered deck provides more space
              at the conflict points, at the points where
              pedestrians change direction or speed,
              improving the flow of pedestrians at peak
              times.

              The lift shaft is immediately apparent
              when traversing the deck, as it is not
              hidden behind a corner, and the fully
              glazed walls as well as lighting and
              signage indicate its location.

              Lifts, stairs and landings are compliant
              with all relevant accessibility standards.

                 Removal of platform columns
                 The structure of the bridge has been designed so that lift
                 shaft and the stair structure form an arch, off which the deck
                 structure can be supported. This frees up platform space under
                 the bridge where columns would ordinarily be found. The lift
                 motor room is concealed under the stair structure.

             Structural approach
             The structure of the main span is a modern
             variant of a traditional structure often found            CONNECTION DETAIL
             in the railway environment – a steelwork
             truss. The use of the full depth of the
             enclosure enables the structural members
             to be lightweight and elegant. The theme
             of exposed structure continues down the
             staircases, with the stringers in full view.
