Title:	Die Butterfly Bridge in Kopenhagen
Abstract:	Zur Anbindung des Innenstadtbereichs von Kopenhagen an das Quartier Christianshavn und an die neue Oper sollte ein Brückenzug für Radfahrer und Fußgänger von der Innenstadt bis zur Oper realisiert werden. Aus einem internationalen Wettbewerb ging der Siegerentwurf für eine zweiflügelige Klappbrücke über den Christianshavn- und Trangraven-Kanal hervor. Wenn beide Flügel aufgeklappt sind, ähnelt das Bauwerk einem überdimensionalen Schmetterling. Aus diesem Grunde nennen es die Kopenhagener Butterfly Bridge. Die Brücke sollte möglichst filigran sein, sich in kurzer Zeit öffnen lassen und sich gut in die historische Umgebung einfügen. Butterfly Bridge in Copenhagen. A bridge for cyclists and pedestrians from downtown to the opera had to be realized allowing a connection of Copenhagens' city center area, the quarter Christianshavn and the new opera. A two-wings bascule bridge across Christianshavn respectively Trangraven Canal has been the winner's draft of an international competition. If both wings are opened the construction looks like an oversized butterfly. For this reason the habitants of Copenhagen call it Butterfly Bridge. Targeted was sophisticated design, permitting a quick opening as well as a good integration into the historical surroundings.
