The River Forth is a 47km long river central Scotland. Industries in the region include petrochemicals, oil rig construction and ship-breaking. There are many bridges across the Forth upstream as the river is relatively narrow. After it connects with the rivers Teith and Allan downstream, it becomes the Firth of Forth and the crossings are fewer but much bigger.
The Forth Bridge, Forth Road Bridge and the Queensferry Crossing are probably the best known of Firth’s bridges.
The 2.5km Forth Road Bridge was the biggest long span suspension bridge outside the US when it opened in 1964. It has become a critical part of the Scottish economy’s transport system. 70,000 vehicles – including 7,000 HGVs – and 100,000 people rely on it every day.
