New Schuylkill River swing bridge debuts today

The swing bridge over the Schuylkill River opens for business on Friday. Why it matters: The pedestrian walkway — officially dubbed Schuylkill Crossing — fills a gap along the Schuylkill River Trail to unite South and Southwest Philly. The big picture: It's the latest and splashiest addition to the city's trail network since the nearby Christian to Crescent Trail Connector went online last year. State of play: The $28-million rehabilitation project converts the long-defunct railroad bridge into a pedestrian walkway for the first time. The bridge is 225 feet long, linking to a pair of spans on the banks of the river that are 95 feet each. Overall, the project adds a little less than a mile of new trail to the network. Worth noting: The bridge will sometimes swing open to allow for river traffic. But those closures to pedestrians will be brief: The bridge needs roughly 3 minutes to open and another 3 to close. ✨ 1 notable thing: The new span is the only public swing bridge in the city. Zoom in: The swing bridge creates 4.7 miles of uninterrupted trails from Bartram's Garden to the Fairmount Water Works beside the Philadelphia Museum of Art. How to
