交叉大桥：Melkweg大桥

大桥横跨荷兰的Kanaal区，与历史悠久的Purmerend市中心和西南部不断扩大的Weidevenne区相连接。这座桥是运河及其周边总体规划的第一阶段。

The Melkwegbridge (the Netherlands) crosses the Noordhollandsch Kanaal and connects the historic centre of Purmerend with the growing Weidevenne district in the south-west. The bridge is the first stage in a masterplan for the canal and its periphery.

设计团队的目标是创建一个有标识度的区域，它可以作为新旧城区之间的连接点。

“The aim of the design team was to create a new area with a specific identity, which could work as a connector between the old and the new centre.”

这座吸人眼球的大桥由NEXT建筑事务所设计，一个巨大的拱，最高处达12米，与梅尔克威格路连成一线，在桥上可以俯瞰城市美景。高观景台为行人提供了一个从忙碌的生活中暂时歇息的机会，以另一个角度体验Purmerend市的景观。较低的自行车甲板是由一个100米长弯曲车道组成，像钟摆一样横跨水面，由于自行车和轮椅需要一定的坡度，因此车道的长度必须很长。

The most striking part of the bridge, designed by NEXT architects, is a massive arch which reaches a height of 12m above water level and stands in a continuous line with the Melkweg-road, thus offering an incredible view over the city. The high lookout gives pedestrians the opportunity to take a step back from their daily environment and, on a new level, experience the relation between the new and historic city of Purmerend.  The lower bicycle deck is made out of a 100m long bicycle deck that crosses the water like a pendulum. The length of this deck was necessary due to the minimum slope conditions for bicycles and wheelchairs.

自行车与行人的流线分离，使得具有悠久历史的Melkweg 路在新建大桥的流线下得以延续，人行天桥重85吨，钢拱架支撑，由130级台阶组成。该设计使其能够保持通道及其周围环境的空间开放性，12米高的拱门足以让船只通过，下层甲板从中间打断，当船靠近时能够旋转打开。

Seperating cyclists from pedestrians, gave the opportunity to maintain the direct line of the historics Melkweg (Melkroad) within the bridge. The pedestrian bridge weighs 85 tons, consists of 130 steps and is supported by a steel arch. The design makes it able to retain the spatial openness of the channel and its surroundings. At 12 metres, this arch is high enough to allow boats to pass beneath; The lower deck splits into two parts that revolve open when boats are approaching.

人行天桥与下方自行车道相互交叉，形成一个整体，材料和颜色的连续性增强了整体的形式，在桥的边缘，LED灯管遍布桥的轮廓，在日落之后也能看到桥上壮观的景色。

Both bridge sections flow smoothly into each other and form one whole. This unity is enhanced by the continuity of materials and colors. In the edges of the bridge LED lines are applied that follow the contour of the bridge and guarantees a spectacular view on the bridge even after sunset.
