}} The Kylesku Bridge is a distinctively curved concrete box girder bridge in north-west Scotland that crosses the Loch a' Chàirn Bhàin in Sutherland. ==History== In June 1978 the Highland Regional Council asked Ove Arup & Partners Scotland to prepare a feasibility study for a bridge, in their capacity as consulting civil engineers, and was prepared by March 1979. Construction for the approach roads, costing £4 million, began in summer 1981. Construction of the bridge began in August 1982, with Morrison Construction and Lehane Mackenzie and Shand the chief contractors.〔 It was constructed by building out the supporting legs and then lifting the central span, which had been constructed land and then moved onto a barge by rail and weighed , into place.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=D-block GB-220000-933000 Bridge Building at Kylesku )〕 The cost of the bridge was £4 million, although was earlier budgeted at £2.75 million. The bridge opened to traffic in July 1984, and was formally opened by the Queen on 8 August 1984.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kylesku Bridge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
