Rheinbrücke Speyer, Cable-stayed road bridge in Speyer and Hockenheim, Germany.

Rheinbrücke Speyer is a 758 m motorway bridge of the A61 between the Speyer and Hockenheim junctions, crossing the Rhine and its floodplain. Over the river it is an asymmetric cable-stayed span with a single 87 m steel pylon in A-form on the right bank; the left bank carries a 302 m prestressed concrete approach bridge. Each direction has two lanes and a hard shoulder.

Construction began in the early 1970s to address growing traffic needs between the two riverbanks. Its completion in 1974 represented a major development in the region's transportation network.

The bridge carries the A 61 motorway between the Speyer and Hockenheim junctions, so it is a through-route for long-distance traffic rather than a local crossing. Its pylon stands on the right bank so that the view of Speyer Cathedral on the left bank stays largely unobstructed.

The bridge carries the A 61 motorway between the Speyer and Hockenheim junctions, with two lanes and a hard shoulder in each direction; there are no pedestrian or cycle paths. The shipping channel is crossed without piers and keeps a clearance of 9.1 m at the highest navigable water level. The pylon stands on the right bank so that the view of Speyer Cathedral on the left bank stays largely unobstructed.

The distinctive steel cables create a recognizable visual pattern that makes the bridge instantly identifiable from a distance. This design choice balanced engineering needs with a clear architectural identity for the structure.
