Which canal does Venice's Ponte della Costituzione cross?

Venice's Ponte della Costituzione crosses the Grand Canal.

Designed by Santiago Calatrava, the pedestrian bridge links Piazzale Roma, Venice's road and bus terminal, with Santa Lucia railway station. It is the fourth bridge crossing the Grand Canal, after the Rialto, Ponte degli Scalzi, and Ponte dell'Accademia.

The bridge was proposed in 1999, assembled largely away from its final position, and moved into place by barge in 2007. It opened to the public on September 11, 2008. Its steel structure combines stone and glass, including illuminated glass steps and parapets.

A common mix-up is confusing the canal it crosses with the nearby Giudecca Canal, which was part of the route used to transport the bridge sections. The bridge is officially called Ponte della Costituzione, but many visitors and residents call it the Calatrava Bridge.
