Helsinki opens new bridge for trams, cyclists and pedestrians

From the designers webpage:

The bridge horizontal curvature is based not only on structural reasons, but also on improving the user experience - by walking on a curved bridge, a person can better perceive the destination.

Also, there are some plans to connect this bridge to the land barely visible on the right edge of the picture. Not sure if that also plays into the curvature, or when this bridge connection will actually be built.
