Árpád Bridge in Ráckeve

Árpád Bridge in Ráckeve, Road bridge in Ráckeve, Hungary.

The Árpád Bridge is a three-hinged arch road bridge over the Ráckevei-Duna, the southernmost vehicle crossing of that Danube branch. Its single arch has a span of 66 metres. It carries the 5101 road, linking central Ráckeve on Csepel Island with the Kiskunlacháza section of route 51.

A removable wooden bridge first stood at this site. Ráckeve borrowed about 100,000 crowns to build a permanent iron bridge, designed by Szilárd Zielinszki as a three-hinged arch with a 66-metre span and inaugurated on 26 September 1897. Retreating Hungarian troops blew it up on 3 November 1944; Soviet soldiers built a narrow pontoon bridge beside the bridgeheads until the 1948–49 reconstruction, which reused wreckage of the bombed Szeged Tisza road bridge. The present form dates from a 1993–94 rebuilding.

The bridge carries the 5101 road, the island's main spine road, linking Ráckeve's centre on Csepel Island with the 51 road at Kiskunlacháza. It is the southernmost crossing of the Ráckevei-Duna open to motor vehicles. The name honours Árpád, leader of the Magyar conquest.

The bridge is easily accessible with clear pathways for both pedestrians and vehicles on both sides. Visitors should be aware of local traffic conditions, particularly during busy periods when foot and vehicle traffic can be heavy.

The 1948–49 reconstruction reused wreckage from the bombed Szeged road bridge over the Tisza, so the Ráckeve crossing was partly rebuilt from another destroyed Hungarian bridge. Until then, Soviet soldiers had built a narrow pontoon bridge beside the bridgeheads to keep traffic crossing the Danube branch.
