Nadwiślańskiego Urzecza Bridge, Road bridge in Góra Kalwaria and Ostrówek, Poland.
The Nadwiślańskiego Urzecza Bridge is a road bridge crossing the Vistula River with a length of approximately 450 meters and width of about 10 meters, divided into seven spans. The structure connects Góra Kalwaria and Ostrówek while handling significant vehicle traffic between these communities.
The bridge was designed in 1954 by engineer Franciszek Szelągowski as part of expanding road networks around Warsaw. It was built during a period when Poland was modernizing its transportation infrastructure and establishing new connections between developing suburban areas.
The bridge takes its name from Urzecze, an ethnographic region along the Vistula that reflects the local character of the middle river valley. This naming connects travelers to the area's traditional heritage and sense of place.
The bridge forms part of National Road 50 and Warsaw's bypass route, so expect significant traffic, particularly during peak hours. Plan your crossing for lighter traffic periods if you want to enjoy the views and take photographs safely.
The river beneath the bridge is an important habitat for waterfowl and fish populations at this location, making it an interesting spot for nature enthusiasts to observe. Many travelers notice the rich bird life only when traveling slowly or stopping at the riverbanks.
