Project
Steel footbridge for pedestrians and cyclists over the Ostravice River and the railway corridor in Ostrava
Collaboration with David Ambrose, Zdeněk Rudolf Steel structures Vladimír Janata (EXCON), concrete structures Petr Nehasil (Mott MacDonald)
A symmetrically suspended footbridge made of one massive pylon with two arms bridges the Ostravice River and the railway corridor. It connects the city of Ostrava with Dolní Vítkovice. Its strategic position significantly strengthens Ostrava's road network. The length of the supporting structure is 160.5 m. The footbridge crossing provides magnificent views of the industrial architecture - Ostrava Hradčany.
