A connection between the cycle paths in the direction of Lovere and Pisogne, it also allows the connection between the “Corti” and “Piano” districts of the Municipality of Costa Volpino.
This is a cable-stayed walkway with a single asymmetric antenna, in fact it has a span of 38 m and one of 77 m, for a total length of about 115 m.
A characterizing work is represented by the bridge antenna placed in the floodplain area, which has an inverted Y configuration with a total height of about 36 m, built with S355J2 steel tubes with a diameter of 811 mm, a thickness of 20 mm, welded in sections on site.
From the top of the antenna there are 9 orders of steel cable stays with a diameter varying from 76 to 32 mm that support the deck of the cycle/pedestrian bridge.
The deck consists of a single suspended girder with an indicative length of 115 m, and is made with boxed beams in cor-ten steel in S355J2W quality.
The work is completed by the perimeter parapets on the walking surface made of satin-finish AISI304 stainless steel.
