In less than 24 hours this has easily become my most popular video on YouTube. People love a bridge.Longer video from the other day of the first section of the footbridge with some added SOL sunrise. I'll have to go back now they've added another bit.

Are there two footbridges being built at the moment? One high level connecting Keel Square and the Sheepfolds and another at closer to river level to open up the riverside footpaths, or did I just dream that one? Very early graphics had three bridges, the one currently being built, the one you...

Class to see the SoL in all its glory.
I've always thought the main stand should have been the east stand but finally it's in the limelight with these new developments
