Foreshore Freeway Bridge, Unfinished road bridge in Cape Town, South Africa

The Foreshore Freeway Bridge consists of two elevated concrete sections that end abruptly in mid-air above the streets of Cape Town. Both ramps extend in opposite directions and together form an odd urban gap in the city's road network.

Planners designed a new freeway network for Cape Town in the late 1960s, and construction of this bridge began in the early 1970s. Work stopped in 1977 with about 260 metres missing between the two ramps; the city had run out of money and traffic did not justify continuing. Urban legends blame an engineering miscalculation or a shop owner who refused to sell, but the funding explanation is the official one.

The name refers to the reclaimed harbor land where the structure was meant to reach. Its incomplete form now shapes the downtown skyline and belongs to the everyday view for residents of the surrounding neighborhoods.

Both ramps are clearly visible from street level and often serve as a landmark in central Cape Town. The area can be reached on foot from downtown or from the harbor district, though there is no access to the bridge itself.

A group of architecture students from the local university proposed plans to transform the ramps into a public park with a skateboarding area. The proposal drew attention beyond the region and showed how unused infrastructure could become urban meeting spaces.
