Integral multifunctional pedestrian and cycling bridge over the Leitenbach
Project
A new multifunctional integral bridge will soon connect the northern and southern parts of Gundelsheim. The design envisions an unusually wide bridge with integrated seating, creating pedestrian and cycling connections while also serving as a vibrant social space and providing a seamless link to the water, encouraging recreation and interaction with the stream. For events such as the Bach Festival, markets, or performances, the bridge can be temporarily covered with a modular canopy to accommodate various uses.
The material efficient steel construction will be achieved by two supporting integral ribs that also serve as urban furniture.
