Peene Bridge Wolgast

The Peene Bridge extends 247 meters across the Peenestrom waterway, incorporating both railway tracks and vehicle lanes within its metal framework structure.

The Federal Republic of Germany commissioned this transportation link in the 1990s, with construction completed in 1997 to connect the mainland with Usedom Island.

The bridge represents a vital connection point between Western Pomerania and the Baltic Sea region, supporting the movement of local residents and goods.

The bridge operates with a bascule mechanism that opens to allow maritime vessels through a 30-meter wide navigation channel beneath its structure.

Twenty-four specialized bearings, including spherical and horizontal force types, enable the bridge to support both train and vehicle traffic simultaneously.
