who we are

  • BND.06_003_Nigtevecht-bicycle-bridge-ramps-Olav-Heuts-ipvDelft

ipv Delft is one of the leading bridge design and engineering offices in the Netherlands. Over the past twenty years, we have designed and completed hundreds of pedestrian, bicycle and road bridges all over the country. With a growing number of international projects, we are now focusing on building well-designed cycling infrastructure around the globe. Our extensive knowledge and integrated design approach are what sets us apart, as well as our elegant, logical en cost effective solutions.

what we do

Our main focus is on the design and engineering of bicycle (and pedestrian) bridges and the cycling infrastructure they are part of. Our integrated design approach means that we’re taking into account the larger picture, i.e. context, users, technical requirements, the clients brief and possible ways to optimize the added value of the project. Design wise, we always aim for timeless quality, clean lines and structural efficiency.

our expertise

  • EHN.16_Hovenring_Eindhoven_bicycle_bridge_ipv Delft_Andreas Secci-02

As designers and engineers, we know all about bridges: building materials, bridge types, production methods, structural design, conservation, building regulations, cost reduction, placemaking et cetera. As we have worked on many complex and large-scale projects over the years, we also have extensive expertise in creating public support and stakeholder involvement.

Both feasibility and design studies as well as consultancy on the design and implementation of cycling infrastructure are part of our portfolio as well.

design study for replacement of 40+ Belgian bridges

The Flemish government selected around 40 bridges that they want to have replaced by 2030. A consortium of Arcadis, SBE and Tractebel was recently commissioned to prepare this large-scale replacement operation. The consortium has asked ipv Delft to help them create a manual outlining the desired design quality for the new bridges.

architectural design for interchange Brussels

The SPI.R0 consortium, in which Belgian contractors Jan De Nul and Willemen Infra join forces, has been appointed as the bidder of preference for the large-scale refurbishment of the R0xA201 motorway interchange in Brussels. Within the project, we are responsible for the architectural design of all infrastructural structures, such as bridges and bicycle underpasses.

final design Zwolle train station footbridge completed

An attractive public park, 130 by 10 meters in size, located right above the railway tracks, with a unique fully timber bridge deck. In a nutshell, that's the sustainable and green footbridge at Zwolle train station. It is with pride that ipv Delft, Karres en Brands (coordinating architect) and German Ingenieurbüro Miebach now present the final design.
