The Rolling Bridge is designed by Heatherwick Studio and is located in London. Instead of a regular bridge mechanism, the rolling bridge is made in eight steel and timber sections, and is made to curl by hydraulic rams set into the handrail between each section. Throw some legs on this thing and you've got the world's biggest rolly polly.

I wonder what it's like when you get stuck inside when it rolls up.
