Alkarma Pedestrian
Crossover
Currently under construction in Al Karma, Iraq, this expansive pedestrian crossover spans a total of 106 meters from edge to edge. The structure safely bridges a major thoroughfare, providing clear passage over twin 15-meter main traffic arteries and adjacent 11-meter sub-roads. The architectural design elevates standard civic infrastructure by integrating solid stonework and refined plastering with intricate, illuminated CNC aluminum screens. These geometric screens not only provide shading and safety for pedestrians but also transform the crossover into a glowing civic landmark at night, establishing a modern yet culturally resonant aesthetic for the city's urban landscape.
