Lights in the night on new bridge

The Queensferry Crossing is lighting up the night skies.

A Transport Scotland spokesman said architectural lighting is being tested on the £1.35bn bridge and will be fine tuned in the coming weeks.

“Once the system is fully operational it will include uplighting for each of the main towers and strip lighting along the deck edge of the bridge,” he added.

Some locals have said the new lights illuminate the bridge “like three angels”.
