Lille Langebro, Double swing bridge in Inner Harbour, Copenhagen, Denmark
The Lille Langebro stretches 175 meters across Copenhagen's Inner Harbour with two rotating sections that allow marine vessels to pass through a 35-meter opening.
The bridge opened in July 2019 after construction by Mobilis Danmark and Hollandia Infra, marking a new chapter in Copenhagen's transportation infrastructure development.
The structure reflects Copenhagen's dedication to sustainable transportation, providing separate lanes for cyclists and pedestrians to cross between Zealand and Amager islands.
The bridge rotation system completes its opening cycle in 109 seconds and closing in 144 seconds, with signals and barriers managing pedestrian traffic during operations.
Four electric motor units power large diameter slewing bearings that connect with pinions to rotate the moving spans, while hydraulic cylinders reduce structural vibrations.
