Abstract: |
The Ullevaal Footbridge replaces two ageing trussed girders across a busy road intersection with a single, modern structure which is shaped entirely to suit the requirements of pedestrians and cyclists. The new bridge is conceived to minimise travel times for cyclists and forms an integral part of the local network, shaped with fluid curves to facilitate a smooth, disruption-free flow for bicycle users. |
