Tegenbosch Bicycle Bridge

What kind of bridge is Tegenbosch?
Tegenbosch is a 160-metre-long arch bridge that spans all four lanes and the entry and exit lanes. The arch is 130 metres long and the width of the bridge varies between 5 and 7 metres. The bridge is 7 metres above the A2/N2 and the top of the arch is 21 metres above the bridge deck. The bridge lighting consists of two parts: the lighting of the underside of the arch and the lighting of the bridge deck. The lighting of the bridge deck shows effects depending on the speed at which a passer-by enters the bridge. A distinction is made between pedestrians, cyclists and fast cyclists and mopeds. The colours of both parts of the lighting change with the seasons. Where does the name 'Tegenbosch' come from?
The name 'Tegenbosch' refers to the Tegenbosch farm that once stood in the vicinity of the cycle bridge. The farm probably stood there from the late Middle Ages, just like the Mispelhoef and Hoeve Den Hurk. The name ‘Tegenbosch’ therefore refers to the historical significance of the area around the new cycle bridge and gives it a place in the history of Eindhoven. The cycle bridge also ensures that the aforementioned historical locations and the Tegenboschweg, the old access road, are reconnected.

Ideal to cross from the Son / Eindhoven area to Veldhoven.

One of the most spectacular cycling bridges of Brabant. Definitely worth a visit, both during the day and at night!
