Mariánský most, Cantilever cable-stayed bridge in Ústí nad Labem, Czech Republic
Mariánský most is a cable-stayed bridge crossing the Elbe River in Ústí nad Labem with two tall towers and a steel structure. The bridge spans across the water to connect both riverbanks and accommodate vehicles, bicycles, and foot traffic.
The project originated in the early 1900s but construction only began in the 1990s and finished in 1998. The bridge represents a key moment in the city's infrastructure modernization.
The bridge connects two sections of the city and allows people to move freely between different neighborhoods. For locals, it is a daily landmark that shapes how the city looks and functions across the river.
The bridge is open to cars, bicycles, and people on foot, offering a direct route across the river. It is accessible year-round and can be reached from either side of the city.
The structure was designed by architect Roman Koucký and features a blend of steel and concrete construction. This combination makes it a notable example of modern engineering in the city.
