Construction of the footbridge Rádlo is part of the project of multifunctional tourist route of the Euroregion Nisa „Nová Hřebenovka", which is co-financed by European Union fund SAPARD. The tourist route, spanning thru the new footbridge a rock cutting of the road no. 1/65 near to the village Rádlo, is designed to develop cycle and foot touring and in winter there is an adapted cross-country skiing track run thru. Construction of the footbridge contributed to growth of tourism in the village Rádlo and all around the mikroregion Císařský Kámen and it became an architectonic dominant at the way in the Jizerské Mountains. The successful design is backed by fact that the project „Tourist footbridge Rádlo" won in 2005 the prize ČKAIT and the construction was registered in competition Transport construction of the year.
