:format(webp))
The bridge is composed of three individual decks that open and close asynchronously, mimicking the motion of playing fingers. It connects a new housing development to the main road within the flat polder landscape. The decks are divided into two pedestrian and cycle routes and one car lane, improving traffic safety.
