CUY-Pedestrian Bridge (Voinovich Pedestrian Bridge)
Located on North Coast Harbor along Lake Erie, the Voinovich Pedestrian Bridge is a single span double leaf bascule bridge of cable stay construction with a curved alignment. When completed, the pedestrian bridge will connect Voinovich-Bicentennial Park on the northeastern portion of the harbor with the Great Lakes Science Center, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and William G.
