This links two sections of Sheffield Hallam University, the Arundel Building and Charles Street Building.
I don't know who the structural engineer was, but the architect is Bond Bryan Associates, collaborating with Corin Mellor of David Mellor Design, who are much better known as a designer of cutlery than of bridges. The Mellors once had a workshop on the site.
The bridge combines three materials: glass for the side elevations, weathering steel for the roof and floor, and stainless steel for the decorative ribs.
There's not a great deal more to say: it's short, and it's sweet.
