Staro-Nikolskii bridge, Regional heritage bridge in Admiralteysky District, Russia.
The Staro-Nikolskii bridge extends across the Kryukov Canal along Sadovaya Street, connecting the Spassky and Pokrovsky Islands in Saint Petersburg.
Engineers completed the initial construction of the three-span wooden bridge with granite-faced masonry supports between 1784 and 1786, replacing an earlier structure from 1717.
The bridge forms an architectural ensemble with neighboring Pikalov and Krasnogvardeysky bridges, positioned near the Nikolsky Market and Nikolsky Cathedral.
The structure measures 20.2 meters in width and accommodates dedicated lanes for trams, vehicles, and pedestrians crossing the Kryukov Canal.
The bridge underwent a substantial renovation in 1887 to integrate tram lines, requiring foundation adjustments and support modifications at a cost of 65,177 rubles.
