Franjo Tuđman Bridge, Road bridge in Osijek, Croatia.

The Franjo Tuđman Bridge in Osijek spans across the Drava River with a composite girder structure and an A-shaped pylon reaching 141.5 meters.

Construction of the bridge started in 1989 but faced interruption during the Croatian War of Independence before resuming in 1998 and completing in 2002.

The bridge received its name to commemorate Dr. Franjo Tuđman, the first president of Croatia who led the country through its path to independence.

The bridge carries the D8 state road and provides a vital transportation link that reduced the travel distance between regional destinations by 10 kilometers.

The structure features 38 steel wire cable stays housed in protective polyethylene pipes and includes a special maintenance access opening in the pylon.
