An Austrian/German team has won the competition to design a new bridge over the Danube River in Linz, Austria. Consulting engineers Schlaich Bergermann & Partner and Baumann & Obholzer teamed up with architect Volkwin Marg for the competition to design two four-lane highway bridges over the river. Their proposal of a suspension bridge with its main cables anchored in the rock on either side of the gorge, was awarded first prize by the jury.
