Details

The Eva footbridge in Adamov is a timeless and functional solution for a railway, bus and pedestrian transport hub. The client demanded the creation of a new barrier-free access to the platforms and a safe crossing over the railway line, which would also connect two parts of the city of Adamov. The overall modernization consists not only of a new footbridge but also of new platforms, a staircase with a ramp, two station buildings, a bus stop, a parking lot and a public space. The design of the steel footbridge is based on the industrial history and the name of the city of Adamov.

The Jury‘s Statement

The pedestrian bridge connects the two districts of Adamov efficiently and safely, making an attractive contribution to accessibility and urban connectivity. The way in which the design of the steel structure picks up on the historical industrial look and interprets it in a modern way was achieved at a high level of design.
