Gürtelbrücke, Road bridge in Alsergrund district, Vienna, Austria
Gürtelbrücke is a road bridge in Alsergrund that spans the Wien River and the Franz-Josefs-Bahn railway line. It is built from reinforced concrete and carries daily traffic between several city districts.
The bridge opened in 1964 as part of Vienna's post-war modernization of transport connections. It resolved the difficulty of crossing between districts that were previously hard to reach.
The bridge helps locals navigate between neighborhoods that water would otherwise separate. It has become an ordinary part of how residents move through this area of Vienna.
The bridge is easy to access and has multiple lanes for different types of traffic. It is best visited during daytime when traffic is predictable and you can plan your crossing safely.
The bridge's position at coordinates 48°14'10.0"N and 16°21'40.0"E makes it a central node in Vienna's ring road system, the Wiener Gürtel.
