Árpád Bridge, Steel girder road bridge in Budapest, Hungary
The Árpád Bridge extends 981 meters across the Danube River, connecting the northern areas of Buda and Pest with multiple traffic lanes.
Construction started in 1939 under János Kossalka's plans, but World War II delayed completion until November 7, 1950, when it opened as Stalin Bridge.
The bridge bears the name of Árpád, the founding leader who guided Hungarian tribes to establish their homeland in the Carpathian Basin.
The structure accommodates 150,000 vehicles daily, featuring dedicated bus lanes, tram tracks, bicycle paths, and pedestrian walkways for diverse transportation needs.
Between 1980 and 1984, the bridge underwent major reconstruction that doubled its traffic capacity and integrated it into the Hungária Beltway system.
