Schierstein Bridge, Road bridge in Wiesbaden, Germany
The 1282-meter twin bridge spans the Rhine River, connecting the Schierstein district of Wiesbaden with the Mombach district of Mainz.
The initial structure opened in December 1962 and served as a vital transportation link between Hesse and Rhineland-Palatinate for over five decades.
The bridge functions as part of the A643 motorway system, representing one of three major Rhine crossings in the Mainz-Wiesbaden metropolitan region.
The western section includes dedicated pedestrian and cycling paths, while a staircase provides direct access to Rettbergsaue island.
The replacement project, completed in 2023, expanded the crossing to six lanes and incorporated advanced structural engineering to handle 80,000 vehicles daily.
