The Nisbet Road Pedestrian Bridge spans State Highway 51, providing a safe east/west crossing for pedestrian and bicycle traffic. The 260-foot span also links with a north/south bicycle route on the west side of the highway.  Lundquist's concept draws on the jagged outline of mountain peaks to the south.  The unique safety cage was made from small-weave galvanized chain link.​
