Engineers have finished installing the link bridge between the train and tram station at the Edinburgh Gateway Interchange development site.
The two-day project included installing the bridge using 130 and 500 tonne cranes to lift the final main sections of the station structures and the 40 tonne main bridge section into position.

Overall, 115 tonnes of the framework was lifted into place and connected using around 1,700 bolts.
The £41m train station is part of the £742m Scottish Government-funded Edinburgh Glasgow Improvement Programme (EGIP).
The Interchange will consist of two 265-metre, 10-car platforms with 1,500m2 of concourse and circulation space.
A step-free access bridge will link the platforms within the station and connect to the tram stop via lifts and escalators, while an underpass beneath the A8 will provide access from the nearby Gyle centre.
The station is due to open to the public in December 2016.
