Dora Bridge

The Dora Bridge spans across the Tigris River with two distinct levels, separating outbound traffic on the lower deck from inbound vehicles on the upper deck.

Iraqi engineering teams completed the construction of Dora Bridge in 1992, following a decade-long project that began with its initial planning in 1982.

The bridge connects the Karrada district to the Dora neighborhood, which transformed from a Christian-majority area to a predominantly Sunni district after 2003.

Located at coordinates 33.28699 N and 44.447645 E, the bridge functions as a primary transportation artery for residents moving between Baghdad's southern neighborhoods.

The structure incorporates both on-site and ready casting systems in its concrete framework, demonstrating local engineering capabilities during its fifteen-month construction phase.
