Helix Bridge, Singapore

The Helix Bridge, formerly known as the Double Helix Bridge, is a pedestrian bridge connecting Marina Centre and Marina South within Singapore's Marina Bay area. It's positioned next to the Benjamin Sheares Bridge and features an adjacent vehicular bridge known as the Bayfront Bridge. This bridge's design consortium consists of an international team, including Australian architects from Cox Architecture, engineers from Arup, and Singapore-based Architects 61.

Constructed from about 650 tonnes of Duplex Stainless Steel and 1000 tonnes of carbon steel used in the temporary structure to help achieve its helical shape, construction commenced in 2007. The bridge was officially inaugurated on April 24, 2010, although only partially accessible at that time. It became fully open to the public on July 18, 2010, completing the entire walkway encircling Marina Bay.

To provide shade for pedestrians, canopies made of fritted glass and perforated steel mesh have been integrated along certain sections of the inner spiral. The bridge incorporates four viewing platforms strategically located to offer panoramic views of the Singapore skyline and events occurring within Marina Bay. During nighttime, a series of lights illuminate the double-helix structure, creating a captivating visual spectacle for visitors.
