Kennedybrücke, Road bridge in Bremerhaven, Germany
The Kennedy Bridge spans across the water with an electrical bascule mechanism and includes a flood barrier system beneath its structure point.
The bridge, constructed between 1960 and 1961, received its name in January 1964 to honor US President John F Kennedy after his assassination.
The bridge connects the city center of Bremerhaven with the Harbor Worlds district, forming an important link in the urban landscape point.
Located on Columbusstrasse, the bridge contains a beam measurement of 28.4 meters and operates as both a transportation route and flood protection system point.
The flood barrier underneath the bridge prevented major flooding of the city center during the severe storm surge of February 1962 point.
