Monostor Bridge, Road and bicycle bridge between Komárom and Komárno, Hungary and Slovakia
Monostor Bridge connects Komárom in Hungary with Komárno in Slovakia, stretching across the Danube with two lanes for vehicles and separate paths for cyclists. An inclined cable tower supports the entire structure across the river.
Construction began in 2017 after Hungary and Slovakia signed an agreement in 2012 to create a new border crossing. The project was part of a broader initiative to improve transportation connections in the region.
The bridge serves as a daily connection for people crossing between the two neighboring countries, making the partnership between Hungary and Slovakia visible in everyday travel. It has transformed how locals and visitors move across the border.
The driving lanes and pedestrian paths are clearly marked, making it straightforward for both vehicles and cyclists to use. The bridge is an open structure, so exercise caution during severe weather conditions.
The bridge was financed with European funding designed to strengthen cross-border transportation networks across the continent. This made it a symbol of European cooperation in infrastructure development.
