Atamansky Bridge

Atamansky Bridge crosses a waterway in Saint Petersburg, linking different parts of the city with its concrete and metal structure. It functions as one of the many crossings in the area, allowing both vehicles and people to pass over the water.

The bridge was built in 1975 as part of Soviet-era infrastructure expansion in the city. It was constructed during a period when Saint Petersburg was developing its system of crossings over the many waterways that run through it.

The bridge name references the Ataman heritage, reflecting the historical connection between Saint Petersburg and regional cultural traditions.

The bridge is accessible to both vehicles and pedestrians, with public transportation stops nearby. You can reach it by public transit or on foot from the surrounding neighborhoods.

During summer months from April to November, the bridge is raised to allow large ships to pass through. This opening mechanism lets maritime traffic travel between the Baltic Sea and inland waterways.
