Bab al-Mudham bridge, Road bridge over Tigris River in Baghdad, Iraq.

Bab al-Mudham is a road bridge made of steel and concrete spanning 855 meters across the Tigris River. The structure features four traffic lanes and pedestrian walkways, with access roads connecting directly to the main neighborhoods on either side.

The bridge was built in 1977, the same year as many girder bridges in Baghdad, and spans about 855 metres across the Tigris. It links Sahat al-Talaeen on Haifa Street, on the Karkh side, with the Iraqi Fighter Square on Rashid Street, on the Rusafa side. Its name comes from Bab al-Imam al-Azam, an Ottoman-era gate of Baghdad that led to the Abu Hanifa al-Nu'man mosque in Adhamiyah.

The name comes from Bab al-Imam al-Azam, an Ottoman-era gate of Baghdad that led toward the Abu Hanifa al-Nu'man mosque in al-Azamiyah. The bridge carries Haifa Street on the Karkh side to Rashid Street on the Rusafa side, between al-Talaeen Square and the Iraqi Fighter Square.

The bridge carries traffic between Al-Talaeen Square on Haifa Street, on the Karkh bank, and the Iraqi Fighter Square on Rashid Street, on the Rusafa bank. It is a girder bridge about 855 m long, so crossing on foot takes a while; keep to the side walkways and watch the traffic.

The name Bab al-Muadham refers not to the bridge itself but to Bab al-Imam al-Azam, a gate of Ottoman-era Baghdad that led toward the Abu Hanifa al-Nu'man mosque in al-A'zamiyah. The bridge carries that gate's name across the Tigris, linking al-Talaeen Square on Haifa Street in Karkh with the Iraqi Fighter Square on Rashid Street in Rusafa.
