This is where the "Jump over the Emscher" bridge is being built at the Emscher water junction and the Rhine-Herne Canal. Completion is scheduled for 2023.

"The 450 meter long bridge in the shape of a double S, developed on the basis of an international architectural competition, leads once over the Rhine-Herne Canal and twice over the Emscher The starting point and access point for the bridge structure. A counterpart to the Square of Layers can be found in the west of the bridge. The western bridge forecourt extends between the western bridge exit and the Emscherland Landscape Park with "Glass Shaft". The western bridge forecourt forms with the Square of Layers a clasp and thus inserts the building into the landscape.

As a pedestrian and cycle path bridge, it will in future accommodate the regional cycle paths Emscher-Park-Radweg and Emscher-Weg, thus linking the two cities of Castrop-Rauxel and Recklinghausen. The densely populated districts of Castrop-Rauxel-Ickern, -Habinghorst and -Henrichenburg are connected to the nature and water adventure park in Recklinghausen." - Emschergenossenschaft Lippeverband

The bridge is scheduled to be opened for use in summer 2024, although construction sites and diversions along the Emscher will continue for a while. After a tour of the construction site, however, I can already reveal that the crossing of the Rhine-Herne Canal and the Emscher will be another bridge highlight in the Ruhr area.
