Tabiat Bridge<\/p>\n
WINNERS OF MEMAR AWARD 1394 \u2013 PUBLIC BUILDINGS CATEGORY
<\/p>\n
Tabiat Pedestrian Bridge is located in the northern part of the city of Tehran in a zone called Abbas Abad Lands; which is mainly dedicated to cultural spaces such as libraries and museums, as well as public parks. This bridge was designed in order to address the need to improve access for pedestrians between the two parks, which are divided by major highways.\u00a0 \u2018Tabiat\u2019 means \u2018Nature\u2019 in Persian language.<\/p>\n
The bridge crosses Modarres Highway, one of the main highways of the city, and connects Abo Atash Park on the west to Taleghani Park on the east. The intention was to design a pedestrian route that was completely separate from the highway. The 270 meters long bridge is the largest pedestrian bridge built so far in Iran.<\/p>\n
Design of this bridge was the result of a two-phase competition which started in May 2008. The winning design was selected in August of the following year, with detailed structural and architectural design beginning in September 2009 and construction work began in September 2010. It was inaugurated in October 2014.<\/p>\n
