Orphan Bridge | center | The Waisenbrücke was a stone bridge clad with red sandstone and connected Wallstrasse south of the Spree with today's Littenstrasse , formerly Neue Friedrichstrasse, north of the Spree . After the blasting in 1945 and subsequent makeshift repairs, the structure was dismantled in 1960 because there were other functional Spree crossings in the vicinity.

The Wredebrücke, locally also called Rudower Bridge , was a road bridge over the Teltow Canal at kilometer 34.140 of the artificial waterway. It led Rudower Chaussee (Köpenicker Strasse until 1959) across the canal. Today the A 113 motorway bridge is located exactly at this point .

Wuhletalbrücke (n) | Marzahn | The two-part parallel road bridge (total width around 20 meters, length around 40.5 meters) leads Märkische Allee over Wuhletalstrasse . It was built in the 1970s. At the beginning of the 2000s, a load of more than 40,000 vehicles was counted daily. In 2018, routine tests showed that the concrete had concrete cancer . The Senate Traffic Administration initially reduced the traffic and thus the load on vehicles that weigh no more than 3.5 tonnes (into town) ; the road out of town was completely closed. Repairs are no longer economically justifiable, which is why a new building will be built (by 2023). In preparation, the bridge was completely closed from June 3, 2019 and the demolition of the damaged bridge parts began. Since then, traffic has been routed via the entrances and exits to the Wuhletalstrasse below and regulated with construction site lights.
To the west parallel to this road bridge is a nameless railway bridge, which consists of three parallel supporting structures. The railway bridge construction is around 50 meters long and a total of 15 meters wide. The entrances and exits between Wuhletalstrasse and Märkische Allee run between parts of the road and railway bridge. |
