Lemwerder–Vegesack Ferry

Highlight • Bridge

During the crossing, which lasts only a few minutes, you feel for a brief moment as if you were on a real ship voyage. The costs for this are kept within limits (as of 2023) at EUR 1.90 for an adult and a bicycle. On weekdays, the ferries run every 10, 15 or 20 minutes.

Hunte-Weser Barrier

Highlight • Bridge

An interesting hydraulic structure. Opens every hour on the hour for bicycles and pedestrians, the walk is worthwhile, even planning for it or a short wait for it. The railway bridge, which appears here from time to time in the posts, is not accessible.

New Hunte Bridge, Huntebrück

Highlight • Bridge

The new Huntebrücke is part of the new construction of the federal highway 212 in Lower Saxony. The waiting times for road users have been significantly reduced thanks to the efficient lifting and lowering mechanism. The headroom, which is 1.90 m higher than that of the old lifting bridge, also contributes to this.
The new bridge has a total length of 84 m, making it the largest single-wing bascule bridge in Germany. The western approach bridge is about 60 m long, the eastern about 90 m. The bridge superstructure is made of steel, the substructure is made of reinforced concrete. The structure was designed with a shallow foundation and rests on an abutment.

Folding wing reaches 70 m in height

The spans of the bridge are 66.3 m, the construction width is 14.65 m. When the bridge is fully open, the folding wing reaches a height of 70 m. The rear part of the bridge deck sinks into the basement of the bridge pier and serves as a counterweight.
