May 4, 2026, Cycle Path Along the Osnabrück Branch Canal

Easy-to-ride cycle path

A viaduct typically consists of several arches, piers, or columns that allow for a smooth alignment and often connect two points at the same level to cross a valley, road, or riverbed. Unlike simple bridges, which span a single obstacle, viaducts are multi-span and can consist of a series of interconnected bridges.

The road surface could be a bit better at the back towards St. Annen.
