The Jamboree & Michelson Pedestrian Bridge project within the City of Irvine will enhance pedestrian safety, relieve traffic congestion, and serve as a gateway monument for anyone entering the Irvine Business Complex.
The 175-foot-long bridge, which will span Jamboree Road, will feature the following:
- Structural Stainless Steel
- Elevators
- Glass Curtain Walls
- Glass Safety Railing
- Lock Up Devices
- Corian Cladding (Complex Façade)
- Geometrically Complex Cladding Frame Nodes (3D Printed, Cast, or Welded)

As part of the City’s efforts to enhance sustainable mobility, the bridge will include stairs with a bike runnel to make it easy for cyclists to safely navigate the intersection. In addition, the bridge will have energy-efficient, cable-supported elevators.
