I spotted this bridge in passing on the way to Piccadilly Station on Friday but didn’t get a close look. It was erected over the weekend and now they’re looking for a name.
Spinneyhead Bridge, anyone?
Technorati tag: Manchester, Bridge

Oooh, 800 tonne crane… easily beats the 230 tonne crane we had on site on Friday for a new footbridge out Marple way. The huge crane at Piccadilly was probably only needed for height clearance issues with the arch rather than overall weight of the bridge.
Give it six months or so and there’s a new pedestrian / cycleway bridge spanning the River Mersey going in a bit west of the Stockport Pyramid. That’ll be worth watching because it’s longer than this one…
I’ve just nominated the Spinneyhead Bridge
