Riksbron, Arch bridge in central Stockholm, Sweden.
Riksbron stretches 44 meters across the water, connecting Drottninggatan on Norrmalm to Riksgatan on Helgeandsholmen with reinforced concrete construction.
King Charles XII proposed the initial bridge concept in 1712, though the current structure was constructed and opened on December 19, 1931.
The bridge stands near the Parliament Building and Prime Minister's residence, making it a central point for government officials and citizens.
The structure incorporates a 7.5-meter wide road lane and two 3-meter wide pedestrian paths, accommodating both vehicle and foot traffic.
A water regulation system beneath the bridge controls the levels of Lake Mälaren, integrating infrastructure with environmental management.
