The Craigavon Bridge is an engineering landmark in Derry, notable for its two-tier design that carries road traffic on both levels. Originally, the lower deck was used by trains, making it one of the few double-decker bridges in Europe. Walking across, visitors can enjoy views of the River Foyle and the city skyline, while the bridge's steel trusses and history offer a glimpse into Derry's industrial past.
