Abstract
La Florida Bridge is a project promoted by Oviedo City Council to connect La Florida and Western Park neighborhoods. The design is an innovation in urban bridges, solving the connection with a flying semi-circle roundabout suspended from its inner edge by a system of cables. Hangers and backstays hang from a loop shaped closed main cable, anchored to a central articulated mast. The structure is completed with a post-tensioned concrete approach viaduct, a composite connection span between roundabout and viaduct, two cantilever footbridges and a concrete counterweight ring.
