Swan Bridge (Khadenz: Vedal Limra) is a cable-stayed bridge in the City of Cadenza. It was designed by Arimathean architect Iriyen Palaiko and built between February 2008 and October 2009 using prefabricated steel sections from Medlar. It was initially officially known as Vedal ti'Markirif ("Fletcher's Bridge") but was renamed two months into construction as its current name dominated popular use.
At 142 metres, it is the second longest bridge over the Temloth. It has won a number of architectural and engineering awards and in 2012 was voted Cadenza's "Most Beautiful Urban Bridge."
