Okhtinsky No 3 Bridge, Architectural landmark in Krasnogvardeysky District, Russia.

The Okhtinsky No 3 Bridge features a five-span reinforced concrete structure with I-beams and concrete slabs supported by monolithic abutments on pile foundations.

The bridge, constructed and opened in 1912, replaced a wooden structure that previously connected the banks of the Okhta River in Saint Petersburg.

The structure holds regional cultural heritage status and represents early 20th-century Russian engineering methods through its concrete and metal construction techniques.

The bridge includes a dedicated sidewalk separated from the roadway by concrete curbs and metal barriers, ensuring safe passage for pedestrians crossing the Okhta River.

Engineer R.R. Shipov designed this crossing during an extensive 1991-1994 project, incorporating reinforced concrete technology that was advanced for its time period.
