If you’re passing through Dublin’s docklands, you’ll no doubt have the opportunity to admire the Spencer Dock Bridge, an ultra-modern bridge spanning Dublin’s Royal Canal. Its rounded shape allows the Luas (Dublin’s tramway), vehicles and pedestrians to cross the canal. A rather atypical bridge, with a look that should appeal to you!
Although not as famous as the Ha’Penny Bridge or the James Joyce Bridge, the Spencer Dock Bridge is one of the newest structures to grace the streets of Dublin. Practical, it links the 2 banks of the canal for the docklands area, saving precious minutes for public transport and other users wishing to reach the other side of Dublin.
For walkers, the bridge is a great opportunity to admire the Royal Canal, the River Liffey and the district’s new modern buildings. Finally, architecture fans can admire the bridge’s rather atypical design.
