Located near the Esch-Micheville link, the OA865 cycle bridge allows crossing over the Rue du Crassier, leading to the future Ehlerange zoning area.
It spans a clear distance of 35 m with a width of 3.44 m – crossing a four-lane road with separated traffic lanes, a shared pedestrian and bicycle path, and a gutter on each side. The main longitudinal load-bearing element consists of a closed trapezoidal steel box with variable height. In the transverse direction, the cantilevered deck is supported by steel plates that taper outward and are welded perpendicularly to the main box.
