The Tay Road Bridge is a road bridge that spans the Firth of Tay in Scotland, connecting the city of Dundee to the town of Newport-on-Tay. Opened in 1966, it is approximately 1.4 miles (2.3 kilometers) long and serves as a vital transportation link for vehicles traveling across the river. The bridge features a cantilever design and is made of reinforced concrete. It was constructed to alleviate traffic congestion on the older Tay Rail Bridge, which primarily serves trains. The Tay Road Bridge is an important part of the local infrastructure, supporting both daily commuters and commercial transport.
