Byens Bro, Modern footbridge and bicycle bridge in Odense, Denmark.
The bridge spans 135 meters across 15 railway tracks at Odense Station, featuring separate pathways for cyclists and pedestrians with a steel and concrete structure.
The construction project, completed in 2015, emerged from a design competition won by Gottlieb Paludan Architects in 2012 to connect the city center with harbor areas.
The name selection involved over 1300 local participants in a public competition, reflecting the community engagement in urban infrastructure development.
The bridge connects Østre Stationsvej to Kottesgade, providing access to three railway platforms through lifts and stairs with parking for 1400 bicycles.
The structure includes a 30-meter mirror-finished steel pylon that supports the main span while creating two public squares at both ends.
