The paper deals with dynamic response of footbridge Veveří which is induced by the movement of people. Measurement of response induced by the movement of people was carried out on this footbridge. Graphs of acceleration in chosen points in time were results of measurement. The pedestrians who cross footbridge in specific numbers and in different types of walk were source of vibrations. On site measurements were compared with calculations of individual load states.
