Riederwald Pedestrian and Cycle Bridge

With a span of 61.60 m, the integral structure spans the A66 motorway in one go. The foot and cycle path bridge elegantly connects the Frankfurt districts of Seckbach and Bergen-Enkheim with the Fechenheimer Wald recreation area.

Integral Structure Connects City and Recreation Area

Reinforced concrete cantilevers extend the two abutments, which are founded on drilled piles, towards the carriageways. The central steel cross-section of the structure consists of two lateral hollow sections. Between them is the orthotropic carriageway slab, which is flexurally rigidly connected to the cantilevers.
