Lanový most, Cable-stayed road bridge in Strašnice, Czechia.
Lanový Most is a cable-stayed road bridge in Strašnice that carries vehicles and pedestrians across railway line 220. The structure uses support cables running from central towers to the road deck, distributing traffic loads across the span of about 101 meters.
Construction began in 1991 as part of Prague's infrastructure modernization in the years following the country's transition to democracy. The bridge opened to traffic in 1993 and became an important link in the city's expanding transportation network.
The bridge represents a period of rapid development in Prague's transportation network following the country's transition from communist rule.
The bridge sits on Prague's City Ring Road and provides a straightforward route connecting different neighborhoods on the eastern side. Both cars and pedestrians can cross it during all daylight hours.
The structure demonstrates modern engineering principles through its cable-stayed design, which transfers the deck load directly to the supporting towers.
