In the Dutch city of Eindhoven, you will find a very unique suspension bridge. This steel bridge is a 'roundabout' that is 236 feet in diameter and 230 tall with a pylon of 24 cables. It was built in 2008 for bicycle traffic only as congestion on the street 'roundabout' was overwhelming and bike safety was at risk. While building the bike bridge, the roundabout street below was converted into traditional x crossing. I like it :). Maybe not so strange if you live in Netherlands, but where I live, you are lucky to find even the simplest of biking lanes.
