Pedestrian Bridge in Plovdiv

Pedestrian Bridge in Plovdiv, Pedestrian bridge over Maritsa River in Plovdiv, Bulgaria.

The Pedestrian Bridge, officially Most Saedinenie, spans the Maritsa River with a central span of 90 metres and two end spans of 46 metres, giving a total width of 16 metres. Built by Moststroy using the cantilever Stobet system, it carries two 1,000 mm heating pipes and is covered by light metal structures housing shops. Its red-and-white exterior and window layout led locals to call it "The Train".

Construction of the pedestrian bridge began on 9 January 1982, east of the old bridge that collapsed in 1971, and it opened in 1986 under the official name "Saedinenie". It was the first structure in Bulgaria built by the cantilever "Stobet" system, with a 90 m central span and two 46 m side spans, 16 m wide, erected by Moststroy with elements made in Katunitsa. It was later covered with light metal structures to form a shopping zone, designed by Marcho Minev and Dimitar Kumanov.

Locals rarely use the official name "Saedinenie"; because of the red-and-white metal cladding and the window layout, they call the bridge "The Train". The covered structure houses a shopping zone designed by Marcho Minev and Dimitar Kumanov.

The structure is easy to reach on foot and provides a direct route between two important zones of the city. You can use it to walk from one neighborhood to the other or to stop and browse along the way.

The roof of the bridge shelters visitors from rain and sun throughout the year, making it a place that feels comfortable in any season. This consistently protected environment sets it apart from other pedestrian routes in the area.
