The proposed Narrow Water Bridge crosses the Newry River approximately 400m south of the Narrow Water Keep. The bridge, which connects the R173 Omeath Road south of Ferry Hill and the A2 dual carriageway at the existing roundabout, is situated approximately 1km and 2km north of Warrenpoint and Omeath, respectively. The structure will provide road, pedestrian and cycle access. Due to the navigational requirements along the river for accessing Victoria Lock and the Albert Basin, the northern span of the bridge will be an opening movable span providing, when opened, an unlimited vertical clearance for at least a 20m wide navigational channel. The structure is a two span cable stayed bridge with an asymmetric arrangement. The south span is approx 138.35 m and the north span is approx 56.8 m giving a total length of approx 195m.
