About The Sundial Bridge
The Sundial Bridge was designed by world-famous architect Santiago Calatrava. The Sundial Bridge at Turtle Bay crosses the Sacramento River in the heart of Redding, California. Opened July 4, 2004, the bridge links the north and south campuses of Turtle Bay Exploration Park and serves as a new downtown entrance for Redding¹s extensive Sacramento River Trail system.
