I love the Samuel Beckett Bridge. Its design is astonishing – simple, yet intricate and a marvel of construction engineering. IMO it is also reminiscent of the Irish national emblem of the harp.

At night the bridge strings light up for an even more impressive experience. They also play seasonal visuals sometimes.

Utility-wise, the bridge enables bi-directional crossing of the Liffey for pedestrians, bicycles and cars, although there are frequent traffic jams during rush hours. The bicycle exit when going to the city centre (coming from the north side) is also very much not ideal. For this reason, I can only give 4 stars for an otherwise sublime bridge.
