Merthyr Road: Bridge Over Western Avenue To UWIC
Posted by Stuart Herbert on July 5th, 2010 in Cardiff, Education, Modern, Photos, Shoot.
UWIC (the University of Wales Institute, Cardiff) is a modern University founded in 1996 in Cardiff. It can trace its roots back to the School of Art, which opened in the Old Free Library building back in 1865.
Today, it has several campuses around Cardiff, including this one on Western Avenue opposite Pontcanna Fields. Western Avenue, as part of the A48, is one of the major dual carriageways through Cardiff, making it too busy to cross to and from the campus without assistance. There are several pedestrian crossings, and this (presumably older) footbridge, which caught my eye because of the unusual double sets of steps leading it up to it.
