Architect Wilkinson Eyre and Arup have designed the 197 m long bridge at Gatwick Airport for client BAA to link the North Terminal with the Pier 6 satellite building. It is the larger of the two passenger bridges in the world that span a taxiway. The bridge will be high enough to allow the largest passenger aircraft, the Boeing 747-400, to pass under it. The main contractor is Mace; fit-out contractor is Warings; steelwork fabricators are Watson Steel and Fagioli PSC; M&E engineer is NG Bailey; envelope glazier is Schmidlin; envelope soffit/roof is by Prater; concrete works are by Laing O'Rourke.
