Al-Sarafiya bridge, Steel truss bridge in Baghdad, Iraq
The Al-Sarafiya bridge extends 450 meters across the Tigris River with a width of 14 meters, connecting the neighborhoods of Waziriyah and Utafiyah.
The bridge underwent a complete reconstruction after a truck explosion in 2007, leading to its reopening by Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki in May 2008.
The bridge functions as a central meeting point for residents of northern Baghdad, reflecting the daily routines and social patterns of the local population.
The steel structure accommodates both vehicles and pedestrians, serving as a principal transportation route between the northern districts of Baghdad.
The bridge withstood multiple periods of conflict, including damage from bombardments in 1991, demonstrating the evolution of Baghdad's infrastructure through different eras.
