Historically, timber bridges always have played an important role for people in crossing the water barriers, depth valleys or other obstacles. The history of timber bridges in Latvia begin in 9th century and continue till nowadays. Golden age for timber bridges in Latvia was the period from the end of 19 centuries till the beginning of the World War II. In that time Latvia had high qualified bridge engineers which were able to design and build long span bridge structures. Today’s achievements of glued laminated timber (glulam) structures protection systems, new joining methods, possibility to produce the glued laminated timber structures with clearly indicated properties, will return the timber as structural material in bridge construction industry. The aim of this study was to presented the recently built pedestrian overpass in Latvia. The glulam timber covered truss bridge is built in entrance of Nature Park in Tervete over road with intermediate traffic intensity. The new overpass ensures safe and attractive entering of the visitors with children’s in Nature Park. The design and construction processes as well the experimental investigations of static and dynamical behavior of overpass are described in this paper.
