Abstrait:

The Forth Replacement Crossing will be built across the Firth of Forth in Scotland to maintain and enhance a vital transport link. The wide estuary will be crossed by a cable stayed bridge with 3 towers and a pair of 650 m main spans. In the centre of each main span the stay cables will overlap to stabilise the central tower, a unique design feature for a bridge of this scale.

The scheme design of the crossing has been carried out by the Jacobs Arup joint venture in accordance with the Eurocodes and project specific design criteria. The structure will provide a fitting 21st century icon, to stand alongside the existing cantilever rail bridge from the 19th century and road suspension bridge from the 20th century, both Grade A listed bridges.
