The Danube bridge Pöchlarn is a road crossing opened in 2002 over the Danube in Lower Austria .

location

The bridge connects Wiener Straße (B1) with Donau Straße (B3) just east of Pöchlarn and thus creates another access point from the southern Waldviertel near Klein-Pöchlarn to the West Autobahn .

The Danube bridge Pöchlarn is at river kilometer 2043.60. The next bridge upstream is the bridge at the Ybbs-Persenbeug power plant at kilometer 2060.42. Downstream, the next crossing for pedestrians and cyclists is at the Melk power plant at kilometer 2038.12 and the next road bridge at kilometer 2034.43.

description

The bridge leads the Pöchlarner Straße (B209) over the Danube. It is 460 m long and 13.45 m wide and has two vehicle lanes and a wide combined cycle and sidewalk on the upstream side. On the left bank, traffic is threaded into the B3 over a 100 m long foreshore bridge, while pedestrians and cyclists are guided over a multi-storey, 204 m long spiral onto the bank path.

The prestressed concrete bridge planned by DI J. Mayer ZT GmbH für Bauwesen has five openings with pillar spacing of 72.5 + 3 × 105 + 72.5 m. Its superstructure consists of a single-cell, slightly haunched box girder with a rectangular cross-section and an overall height that rises from 3.0 m to 6.0 m, as well as a widely cantilevered deck.

After three and a half years of construction, the bridge was opened to traffic on May 5, 2002.

The regular ferry service at Marbach an der Donau , attested to since 1319, had become obsolete, the ferry was decommissioned and has since been available as an excursion boat for tourists under the name "MS Marbach".

On the part of the Danube bridge facing Klein-Pöchlarn, a Johannes Nepomuk cross was erected by Robert and Andreas Herfert , which shows the bridge saint lying, standing and falling into the water.
