Hofstraat Bridge, Landgraaf

concept

Right from the start, we envisioned a clean, slender and no thrills arch bridge.

We used this concept throughout the entire design process, which has resulted in a bridge where no detail has been left unattended and everything comes together to create a strong and clear bridge design. For instance, we designed wind bracing that follows the arches curve and used custom made round bolts instead of the regular hexagonal headed ones throughout the bridge.

lighting

RGB LED lighting in the steel bridge deck illuminates the bottom side of the wooden arches at night, creating an attractive night image.
