Dafne Schippersbrug, Bicycle bridge over Amsterdam-Rhine Canal in Utrecht, Netherlands.
The Dafne Schippersbrug extends 110 meters across the waterway, connecting the historic center of Utrecht with the Leidsche Rijn residential district.
The municipality initiated construction in 2015 and completed this essential transportation link in May 2017, naming it after Dutch athlete Dafne Schippers.
The bridge represents a significant step in Dutch urban planning, accommodating thousands of cyclists daily between established and developing neighborhoods.
Rising 9 meters above the canal with a maximum height of 35 meters, the structure incorporates two asymmetric pylons supporting a sophisticated cable system.
This engineering achievement stands as the first ground-anchored suspension bridge in the Netherlands, featuring a curved path around Victor Hugoplantsoen.
