Tyne Bridge, Newcastle-Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, UK, is a through arch bridge over the River Tyne. Opened in 1928, the bridge is constructed of a striking steel parabolic arch design. The design of the main arch involves progressive cantilevering using cables, cradles and cranes. Its neoclassical and art deco towers are a symbol of Tyneside and the bridge is recognised worldwide for its dramatic design.
