Construction of the bridge began in October 2007 and is the first in the world to be built using a method that combines tension and compressed steel. The Premier says the Kurilpa Bridge is the world&#8217;s largest tensegrity pedestrian and cycle bridge which balances tension and compression components to produce a light but incredibly strong structure.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nOne of the other unique features of the bridge is how it is lit and powered. The bridge employs a sophisticated LED lighting scheme that can be programmed to produce an array of different lighting effects, which will become a feature of Brisbane&#8217;s annual Riverfire celebrations. 75 per cent of the power required to run the LED lighting in the fully lit mode is generated by solar energy.<br \/>\nVia [<a href=\"http:\/\/www.energymatters.com.au\/index.php?main_page=news_article&#038;article_id=612\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow external noopener noreferrer\">energymatters<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The design for the Kurilpa Bridge is a world-first and a new landmark for the State of Queensland.
