Grasbrook and Veddel
Veddel Grasbrook are neighborhoods in Hamburg.
The city districts are located on islands in the Elbe River.
The islands are surrounded by water.
And there are major roads on the islands.
The streets separate the city districts from the rest of Hamburg.
And the streets also separate the different parts of the city from one another.
A street is 110 meters wide.
Driving on the road:
- Long-distance trains
- Suburban trains
- Freight Trains
- Trucks.
The street runs between the two parts of the city.
You have to be able to cross the street.
The wide street is a problem for the local residents.
That's why people can't move very well.
And the road is a problem for the development of both parts of the city.
There were various events.
People were able to have a say at the events.
For example:
- at planning sites
- in the 2019/2020 Competitive Dialogue.
Many people from Veddel said:
For years, there have been too few amenities in our part of town.
For example:
- Stores
- Buses and trains.
Veddel Grasbrook are to be a shared urban space.
There are supposed to be several new bridges.
And there's already a path under the street.
The bridges and the path are intended to connect the two parts of the city.
This will help Veddel Grasbrook grow together more effectively.
A new bridge is called: Veddel Bridge.
The bridge connects this part of the city to a new subway station.
The subway station is the U4 station above Moldauhafen.
This will make it easier for people in that part of town to get around by bus and train.
New Bridge Built
The Veddel Bridge Veddel the two city districts of Veddel Grasbrook.
The Veddel Bridge Veddel from Veddel Market Square to the new City Square on the Grasbrook side.
You can cross the Veddel Bridge:
- run
- ride a bike
- to ride in a wheelchair
- Go for a walk with the stroller.
The new town square on Grasbrook is set to become a central hub.
In other words, the new city square is set to become an important gathering place for both parts of the city.
I hear there are a lot of things there.
For example:
- an elementary school
- Stores
- Recreational Activities
- Facilities for neighbors.
There's also a new stop on the U4 line.
The bus stop is located above the Moldau Harbor.
What should the Veddel Bridge Veddel ?
That will be decided in a competition.
The competition took place in 2025.
Everyone was able to participate.

These offers are for:
- The People of Veddel
