Europabrücke

The Europabrücke is a highway bridge crossing the Süderelbe river in Hamburg, connecting Wilhelmsburg with Harburg. It is made of prestressed concrete and built with a box girder design that separates traffic flowing in opposite directions.

The bridge was completed in 1983 to meet growing traffic demands between Hamburg's southern districts. It replaced earlier, smaller crossings and established modern transportation links on this route.

The bridge connects the districts of Wilhelmsburg and Harburg, supporting daily movement between communities along the Elbe river's industrial and residential zones.

The B75 federal highway crosses this bridge and connects southern districts directly to Hamburg's center. If you need to drive over the Süderelbe, this is the standard route used by most traffic.

The bridge features three central spans of 102 meters each, complemented by additional spans of 41, 60, and 64 meters respectively.
