Luka Gruž, Cable-stayed bridge at Port of Gruž, Croatia

The Franjo Tuđman Bridge extends across Rijeka Dubrovačka with a total length of 518 meters and stands 141.5 meters above the water.

Construction of the bridge began in 1989 but faced interruption during the Croatian War of Independence before resuming in 1998 and completing in 2002.

The bridge carries the name of Croatia's first president, Franjo Tuđman, although its supporting pillar still displays the original name 'Dubrovnik Bridge'.

The bridge carries the D8 state road at the western entrance to Dubrovnik and measures 14.2 meters in width to accommodate vehicle traffic.

The structure features an A-shaped pylon with a box cross section and includes a supplementary girder beneath the 25-centimeter deep roadway slab.

Location: Dubrovnik
