Krasavinsky bridge, Railway and road bridge in Perm, Russia.
The Krasavinsky Bridge is a dual-purpose structure carrying railway tracks and vehicle lanes across the Kama River for about 1700 meters. The steel construction allows trains and cars to operate simultaneously in separate sections.
The bridge opened in 2005 and represented a major infrastructure achievement for the Perm region. It was the first time both rail and road traffic could share a single structure here.
The bridge links two neighborhoods and makes daily movement between communities on opposite riverbanks easier for local residents. It has become central to how people navigate the city.
Pedestrians and cyclists should stay on marked pathways and avoid vehicle lanes, as train traffic regularly occurs on the bridge. It is better to cross during quieter times when there is less activity.
While many people cross this bridge daily, few notice that the railway sections are positioned at different levels. This layering makes it possible for trains and vehicles to move without conflicts.
