Melkwegbridge by NEXT Architects

This bridge in Purmerend, the Netherlands, has a steeply arching upper level for pedestrians and a zig-zagging lower level for cyclists and wheelchairs. Designed by Dutch studios NEXT Architects and Rietveld Landscape, the Melkwegbridge crosses the Noordhollandsch Kanaal to connect the historic city center with the growing Weidevenne district in the south-west and is the first stage in a master plan for the canal and its periphery.
