AMAZING WATER BRIDGE IN GERMANY



Water Bridge in Germany…. now this is engineering at its best. This is a channel-bridge over the River Elbe and joins the former East and West Germany, as part of the unification project. It is located in the city of Magdeburg, near Berlin. It took them six years, 500 million Euros to complete this one of the best constructions in the world. This bridge is 918 meters long, it connects Berlin’s inland harbor with the ports along the Rhine river. This bridge, with a depth of water of 4.25 meters, was constructed with about 68,000 cubic meters of concrete and 24,000 metric tons of steel. The construction was started in 1997 and was completed in 2003. This is definitely one of the best constructions in the world.
