Siekierkowski Bridge

Siekierkowski Bridge is a cable-stayed structure spanning 500 meters across the Vistula River with two H-shaped pylons rising 90 meters high. The crossing accommodates three vehicle lanes in each direction along with separate paths for cyclists and pedestrians.

Opening on September 21, 2002, the bridge became the southernmost crossing over the Vistula River in Warsaw at that time. It was built to handle increasing traffic needs for the growing southern districts.

The bridge connects Mokotów on one side with Praga Południe and Wawer on the other, serving as a vital link between these neighborhoods for thousands of people daily. The crossing has become part of the daily routine for residents who work, study, or travel between these areas on the south side of the city.

The bridge features wide roadways and dedicated paths for cyclists and pedestrians, making it accessible for different types of traffic. Expect regular traffic flow, especially during peak hours.

The bridge earned the Architecture and Construction Prize in 2003 for its innovative design featuring composite structures anchored at both riverbanks. This design approach demonstrates thoughtful engineering for how it meets the landscape.
