Peat road footbridge
The Torfstraßensteg is a bridge over the Berlin-Spandauer Schifffahrtskanal between the north bank in Wedding and the Friedrich-Krause-Ufer in Moabit, which is open to pedestrians and cyclists .
The bridge was built between 1979 and 1980 to replace the peat road bridge that existed there at the end of the 19th century and was used for deliveries to a gypsum plant. The bridge, which was badly damaged in the Second World War, was replaced by a new building in 1968, which was demolished again a few meters further west when the Torfstraßenstegs opened in 1980.
The Torfstraßesteg is a tied arch bridge, as a single span girder with a tied arch lying in the bridge axis. The drawstring is the box girder, with cantilever arms widening on both sides from the middle to the ends. The bridge width is 4.3 m in the middle and 6.3 m at the end.
