Floating Dubai Bridge, Pontoon bridge on Dubai Creek, United Arab Emirates.
The Floating Dubai Bridge extends 365 meters across Dubai Creek with six lanes distributed on two parallel decks measuring 22 meters in width.
The Dubai Roads and Transport Authority constructed this fifth crossing over Dubai Creek for 155 million dirhams, opening it on July 16, 2007.
The bridge represents a combination of marine engineering and road infrastructure, connecting the traditional districts of Dubai across the historic waterway.
During peak hours, the structure accommodates 6,000 vehicles per hour and closes at night to allow marine vessels to pass through Dubai Creek.
Twenty-three standardized sections filled with polystyrene plates form the floating structure, assembled in 23 continuous days of construction.
