The Prins Claus Bridge in Utrecht connects the Kanaleneiland neighbourhood with the Leidsche Rijn development. Designed as a single-pylon bridge, it minimises the number of piers, reducing its impact on residential areas. The bridge’s long ramps weave through the surroundings, with separate lanes for pedestrians, cyclists, and motorised traffic. This separation enhances safety and allows light to pass through openings in the deck to the ground below.
