The cycling- and footbridge over the Watersportbaan is part of the F400, the cycling highway around Ghent, and the WesterRingSpoor cycling route. This bridge addresses a critical "missing link," not only within the larger F400 network but also within the local connectivity. The Watersportbaan, a prominent feature in Ghent's urban landscape, required a bridge that blends into its surroundings rather than dominating the views. The design prioritizes minimal visual disruption and seamless integration with the vistas.
