Derevianitsky Bridge, Road bridge across Volkhov River in Veliky Novgorod, Russia.
Derevianitsky Bridge is a modern road bridge spanning the Volkhov River with four traffic lanes and pedestrian walkways on both sides. The structure measures approximately 900 meters in length and uses steel and concrete construction to carry daily traffic across the waterway.
The bridge opened in 2010 as a major infrastructure project connecting two key city districts. Its construction created a direct route where residents previously relied on longer alternative paths to cross the river.
This bridge represents modern engineering achievements in Veliky Novgorod, a city known for its medieval architecture and UNESCO World Heritage status.
The bridge connects two residential areas and serves as a key traffic route across the river. Pedestrians can use the wide sidewalks safely, and crossing on foot takes only a few minutes.
The bridge features observation points where visitors can view the Volkhov River and the historical cityscape of Veliky Novgorod from different angles.
