Vámosszabadi bridge, Truss road bridge in Győrzámoly, Hungary and Medveďov, Slovakia
Vámosszabadi Bridge is a truss road bridge spanning 361 meters across the Danube River between Hungary and Slovakia. The steel lattice structure carries regular traffic and heavy vehicles between the two countries.
Construction of the bridge began in 1942 as part of regional infrastructure development. Major reinforcement work was completed in 1973 to ensure structural integrity and continued transportation capacity.
The bridge functions as a geographical connection point between Hungarian and Slovak communities, enabling regular interactions between residents of both nations.
The bridge is accessible via Hungarian Road 14 and provides a direct crossing between the two countries. During maintenance or high water periods, drivers can use the M15 motorway as an alternative route.
The bridge sits at Danube kilometer 1,806 between two other major river features: the Monostor power station downstream and the Gabčíkovo dam upstream. This location places it at a geographically significant point along the river.
