The final works are underway on the new bridge in Waterford city, the local authority has said.
Waterford City and County Council issued an update on the project in its Monthly Management Report.
A council spokesperson said: “Significant progress continues to be made across the North Quays Public Infrastructure Project, with several key elements now entering their final stages of delivery.
“The finishing out works on the sustainable transport bridge, that includes the surfacing, installation of lighting and street furniture has commenced along with the final commissioning of the automated systems for the opening span.
