Near the mouth of Lake Maggiore, the river Verzasca, the bridge connects the two shores of the municipalities of Tenero-Contra and Gordola.
The pedestrian and bicycle bridge between Bellinzona and Locarno makes it possible to cross the natural course of the Verzasca river for 120 meters.
The idea of the projector came from observation and interpretation of the place. In this sense, the bridge "Ponte dei balzi" in Lavertezzo in the Verzasca Valley was the starting point for the development of the project, which enabled a material reduction with a clear and special structural gesture, at the same time by the use of steel.
