About This Project

The suspension bridge at Noccalula Falls Park was constructed as part of the City of Gadsden’s ongoing efforts to improve safety, accessibility, and visitor experience within one of North Alabama’s most iconic public parks. Bob Smith Construction served as General Contractor for the project, delivering a pedestrian bridge designed to safely connect trail systems and park amenities while complementing the natural landscape of the falls and surrounding gorge. The bridge provides visitors with a unique vantage point of the park’s natural features and enhances circulation throughout the park, supporting both daily recreational use and special events. This project reflects Bob Smith Construction’s ability to execute technically demanding park infrastructure that balances structural performance, public safety, and environmental sensitivity.
