| Abstract: |
As part of the riverfront development program in Wichita, Kansas, two cable-stayed pedestrian bridges were constructed as part of a bike and pedestrian transportation system that is a component of the urban infrastructure. HNTB was responsible for the preliminary and final design of these two unique pedestrian bridges, which spanned 97.5 m and 73.15 m to provide access across the confluence of the Arkansas and Little Arkansas Rivers. |
