Foot bridge Hoher Bogen over the A100 motorway, the Deutsche Bahn and the Berlin circuit line tracks, Berlin-Wilmersdorf.

 

The pedestrian bridge connects Rudolstädter Straße with the Wilmersdorf stadium and the ice rink across the tracks of the S-Bahn and Deutsche Bahn as well as the A100 motorway. The blue-painted steel cable-stayed bridge was built in 1973/1974. It is 126 m long, 4 m wide and has an area of 530 m². The H. is arched. In roughly the middle of the bridge is a circa 55 m high girder to which the bridge is attached with a total of six steel cables. A deflection of the structure of more than 20 cm is possible with larger loads. The H. was named in 1977 after a mountain range in the Bavarian Forest. The primary inspiration for the name of the bridge was the bridge's arched construction.*
