Cable- stayed bridge ( Schenkendorf bridge ) and glass enclosure

Cable-stayed bridge

Following a decision of the city council in 1997, construction of tram line 23 from Münchner Freiheit to Parkstadt Schwabing began on March 20, 2007 and opened on December 12, 2009.

The tram crosses Schenkendorfstrasse on the Schenkendorfbrücke , an 84-meter-long cable-stayed bridge with a pylon that also enables pedestrians and cyclists to cross the street. First the foundations and the mast were created. On July 5, 2008 and July 6, 2008 the prefabricated bridge elements were installed. The construction costs of the bridge amounted to € 7.2 million.

In the place of the Schenkendorf Bridge there was a railway bridge until 1990, on which the railway line from the Munich Nordring to the Schwabing freight yard crossed Schenkendorfstrasse.

history

Schenkendorfstrasse was originally a side street and led from Belgradstrasse via Leopoldstrasse and Scheidplatz to Ungererstrasse. It had a length of about two kilometers. Between 1958 and 1960 the A 9 was extended from Heidemannstrasse to Schenkendorfstrasse. The road was expanded to four lanes. From then on, it led from Leopoldstrasse to Ungererstrasse and it was upgraded to the federal road.

The Petuel Tunnel was built from 1997 to 2002. Since then, the main lanes of Schenkendorfstrasse have started directly under Leopoldstrasse in the tunnel. In this context, the southern carriageway was given a glass enclosure.
