Of Course Copenhagen Is Building a Bike Lane in the Sky
The city’s new pedestrian and cycling bridge will hang between two towers.
Denmark loves bike lanes so much, they’re building one on top of a skyscraper.
Copenhagen Gate is a spectacular plan to link disparate parts of the Danish capital’s regenerating harbor, using a suspension bridge designed especially for cyclists and pedestrians. It’s the bridge’s supports that make it groundbreaking. The span will hang between a pair of mixed residential and office towers located on opposite piers at the harbor mouth.
