Tanzi Bicycle Bridge / Studiobase Architects

Tanzi bicycle bridge is a part of the urban renewal plan of Tanzi District in Taichung City, Taiwan. The bridge connects two broken ends of the Tanzi bike lane –the west end is a green mall altered from an old industrial railroad, and the east is a linear vacant lot released from the elevated railroad completed in 2016. The mission of the bridge is to reach both ends by crossing the 40-meter-wide Chung-Shan Road diagonally, without any intermediate support. The length of the arch bridge is 52 meters, and the length of guiding ramps on each side is about 120 meters.
