@notjustbikes check out this Kruununvuori bridge in Helsinki. It's now the Longest (1191 m) and tallest (135 m) bridge in Finland and no cars allowed.

  • @paynesofren@kolektiva.social @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com impressive. I read the press info by the architects. So much thought went into this! https://kruunusillat.fi/en/releases/kruunuvuori-bridge-the-new-icon-of-helsinki/

    @paynesofren@kolektiva.social @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com Go ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎ Here in ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ we keep telling ourselves that we are competing with ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฑ for best bicycle country, but our tallest bridge is for cars only. And that's not the only example, I keep stumbling on videos from ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎ and ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ป that make me think that ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐis nowhere near the top 5.

    @paynesofren@kolektiva.social @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com I suspect the whole structure can be lighter and cheaper (without sacrificing durability and quality) when building for cycles/foot traffic and trams as opposed to traffic including HGVs. Which would be a win.

    @paynesofren@kolektiva.social @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com ooh we saw that bridge being built when we were in Helsinki in 2023. Cool that it's finished now!

    @paynesofren@kolektiva.social @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com Excellent! But still room for improvement: Helsinki puts up warnings after cyclists hit bump on Finland's longest bridge https://yle.fi/a/74-20222339
