Design
The Jubilee Bridge is a balanced cantilever design, 150 m long with 3 spans and a main span of 106 m.[1][2] It is constructed from reinforced concrete and T-section steel plate girders.[3] It carries dual two lane carriageways and additionally on the western side, a pedestrian cycle track linking in to the local pedestrian cycle tracks on the southern bank of the river Tees.[4]
The piers are supported on 914 mm concrete-filled tubular steel piles and the abutments are supported by steel 'H' piles.[2]
