Salford Quays Canal Lift Bridge

This was a first for me. I have walked over the lift bridge before, but today was the first time I have seen it lift. It didn't lift how I expected it to either. I thought it would lift from one end only, but the whole walkway lifted horizontally.

Here it is in action.

We were on our way over to the Imperial War Museum North, after a spot of shopping at the Lowry.
