Schwanheimer Main Bridge – FFM/Schwanheim/Nied 🚴‍♂️

The Schwanheimer Bridge is a road bridge in Frankfurt am Main that connects the Main River with the districts of Nied and Schwanheim. The B 40 motorway runs over the bridge between Frankfurt-Griesheim and Kelsterbach. The Schwanheimer Bridge is 489 m long and 29 m wide; in each direction, it comprises two lanes separated by a paved median, a sidewalk, and a bike path. The connection to Schwanheimer Uferstraße on the southern bank and Nieder Kirchweg on the northern bank of the Main River is provided by two ramps each, which form wide loops.

The first Schwanheimer Bridge between Schwanheim and Griesheim was built between 1905 and 1907, of which only the bridge house remains today. It was blown up by Wehrmacht engineers on March 25, 1945, to halt the advance of American troops. Between 1947 and 1963, a temporary bridge connected the Griesheim and Schwanheim banks. The current Schwanheim Bridge was built 600 m downstream of the temporary bridge in 1961/62 and opened to traffic in September 1963.

Unfortunately, the curb is not lowered, so there are always conflicts with pedestrians on the side of the bridge facing Niederrad.

On the other hand, it is much more relaxed to drive.
