Lochkov Bridge, Road bridge in Lochkov, Czech Republic.
The Lochkov Bridge is a modern road bridge made of steel and concrete that spans across the Lochkov Valley as part of the Prague Ring Road. It crosses the valley at a considerable height and connects traffic networks around the city.
The bridge opened in 2010 as part of efforts to modernize transportation around Prague. It was built to improve connections between different areas and ease traffic flow across the valley.
The bridge design by architect Patrik Kotas demonstrates the evolution of Czech engineering and infrastructure development in the 21st century.
The bridge serves as a major road used by vehicles traveling through the area and connecting different regions. The best views of the structure come from the approach roads or from a distance within the valley below.
The bridge was built using a special construction method that allowed it to be extended gradually, increasing its length step by step during assembly. This innovative technique gained international recognition and won awards.
