Dongchang Elevated Passage / Atelier Z+

Dongchang Elevated Passage is a trestle bridge for only cyclists and pedestrians, in the Project on Public Space Connection of both Banks of Huangpu River, as one of the twelve bridges across the main space breakpoints like river and ferry terminals on the East Bank of Huangpu River, Dongchang Elevated Passage has been a vivid example that presents how to coordinate multi-interests, improve urban public space quality and maximize its publicity. This elevated passage goes crosses over Dongchang Ferry Terminal and borders the flourishing Lujiazui CBD area. Dongchang Road used to be the most prosperous commercial area in Pudong. The Ferry Terminal there once was the only place that must be passed for people in Pudong to get into the Shanghai center area. With the changing times, Dongchang Ferry Terminal continues to be the busiest one in Pudong Area. There is huge traffic pressure in this Terminal since it carries tens of millions of passengers every year and becomes a starting station for multiple bus lines.
