Reichsbrücke, Multi-level bridge in Leopoldstadt, Austria.

The Reichsbrücke extends 528 meters across the Danube River, connecting the districts of Leopoldstadt and Donaustadt through six traffic lanes and rail tracks.

The first bridge at this location opened in 1876 as Crown Prince Rudolf Bridge, while the current structure was constructed in 1980 after its predecessor collapsed.

The bridge serves as a central meeting point between Vienna's urban districts, representing the physical connection between the historical center and modern developments.

The structure accommodates 50,000 vehicles daily, includes dedicated cycling paths, pedestrian walkways, and carries the U1 metro line between stations Donauinsel and Mexikoplatz.

This double-decker bridge integrates multiple transportation systems, with road traffic on the upper level and railroad tracks on the lower deck.
