Nescio Bridge, Suspension bridge in Amsterdam-Oost, Netherlands

The Nescio Bridge extends 780 meters across the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal, featuring a curved steel structure with a single cable suspension system.

Completed in 2006, this bridge marked a milestone as the first suspension bridge in the Netherlands designed exclusively for cyclists and pedestrians.

The bridge name honors a Dutch writer who frequently walked along the Diemerzeedijk, reflecting the connection between infrastructure and local literary heritage.

The bridge provides a 10-meter clearance above water level, enabling commercial vessels to navigate freely while connecting Amsterdam Science Park to IJburg district.

The steel box girder deck changes its cross-section from a deep triangular shape at mid-span to a shallow section at the concrete approaches.
