DutchNews

A unique bridge, which is said to be the world's first 3D-printed crossing for cyclists, was unveiled in the small Dutch town of Gemert on October 17, Sputnik News reports. 

Designed and built in about three months by a team of engineers from the Eindhoven University of Technology and the construction company BAM Infra, the bridge was printed in pieces from 800 layers of a concrete mixture and reinforced with steel cable.

Eight meters long and just three and a half meters wide, the bridge can handle a weight of up to five metric tons and is expected to last for at least 30 years.
