Berliner Brücke, Highway bridge in Duisburg, Germany.

The Berliner Brücke extends 1.8 kilometers across railway tracks and the Rhine-Herne Canal, connecting different districts of Duisburg through a concrete structure.

The bridge opened on September 6, 1963, with Berlin Mayor Willy Brandt and 400 guests attending the inauguration ceremony for this infrastructure development.

The bridge name represents the connection with Berlin citizens, marked by the artwork 'Begegnungen' by Berlin artist Ursula Hanke-Förster at its southern end.

The structure consists of multiple sections, including city park, freight yard, harbor basin, industrial, Rhine-Herne Canal, Ruhr, and Ruhr dike bridges.

The Rhine-Herne Canal section features prestressed concrete box girders with spans of 67.65, 84.80, and 66.68 meters, each deck measuring 12.25 meters wide.
