Notes
The pedestrian river walkway at Lake Hickory in North Carolina is an exciting destination for all users interested in crossing over the water to enjoy views of the landscape. The walkway consists of a light, elegant, inverted Fink truss structure in a color that blends in with the natural environment. The innovative, cost- effective walkway is the longest structure of its kind in the United States. Seating areas, aesthetic lighting, and a wooden deck walking surface enhance residents’ enjoyment of the waterfront. The bridge is well integrated into the adjacent landscape and has become a regional destination due to its impressive setting over the lake.
