On a summer saturday evening the new bascule footbridge over Motława River in Gdansk was opened to public.
The bridge, over a navigational canal, connects the old town center with the Ołowianka Island. The bridge is lifted for wesels on a hourly schedule and is opereted 24 hours a day.
Reminder:
Ponting won the international design competition in November 2012, the project was realized in 2015 and 2016 and the construction took more or less a year.
