Nijmegen City Bridge De Oversteek by NeyPoulissen Architects and Engineers

The project by NeyPoulissen Architects & Engineers includes a tied-arch bridge over the Waal river with a clear span of 285 m, as well as the approach viaducts that make up a total length of 1.2 km. This new crossing will connect the western part of the city to the ring road and will allow redevelopment of the southern docklands.

The scenography of the new crossing has played an important role in the project. The design results from the imposing dimensions of the river Waal, including forelands and shores, and in turn shapes the surrounding urban environment.
