Inner Harbour Bridge, Harbor pedestrian bridge in Nyhavn, Denmark

The Inner Harbor Bridge spans 180 meters across Copenhagen's waterfront, connecting the districts of Nyhavn and Christianshavn with dedicated lanes for cyclists and pedestrians.

The construction of this modern infrastructure project commenced in 2013, with delays extending the completion date until its official opening in July 2016.

Copenhagen residents refer to this structure as the Kissing Bridge due to its retractable mechanism that brings two sections together in the middle of the waterway.

Between 3,000 and 16,000 cyclists cross this bridge daily, making it a central connection point in Copenhagen's extensive bicycle transportation network.

The bridge's retraction system operates horizontally rather than vertically, allowing larger vessels to pass through the harbor by splitting the bridge into two sections.

Location: Copenhagen Municipality

Inception: July 7, 2016

Length: 180 m
