To the east of Hull’s city center lies a new footbridge connecting the English city’s Old Town conservation area to an industrial space currently undergoing redevelopment. While most footbridges probably wouldn’t warrant mention on Gizmag’s pages, this particular footbridge, designed by architects McDowell+Benedetti, features a novel mechanical system that enables people to “ride” across the River Hull as the bridge slowly rotates to make way for water-based traffic.
