Olympia Pedestrian and Bicycle Bridge

Olympiastraße, 6020 Innsbruck, A
Architecture: Anton Widauer (2005-2006) Builder-owner: Land Tirol, Stadt Innsbruck

The pedestrian and bicycle bridge, a four-field steel composite structure running next to the four-lane "Olympia Bridge,” spans 250 meters over the railroad tracks of Innsbruck’s Main Railway Station and the Sill River. Blinding out the car traffic, the 300-meter-long parapet beam bends as a dynamically formed separator element from east to west. A large-scale exposed concrete beam breaks away from the terrain in the east and shows the stairs.

Völs Town Hall

Dorfstraße 35, 6176 Völs, A
Architecture: Peter Pozzo, Anton Widauer (2004-2006) Builder-owner: Marktgemeinde Völs Open to the public: partially

In close vicinity to the existing town hall, a second, barrier-free administration building was erected for the community. The heterogeneous, rurally structured setting and the steeply rising slope of the Blasiusberg Mountain defined the scale, shape and materiality of the new structure. As if growing out of the slope, a corten-steel roof edges its way over the otherwise very transparently kept building.
