Borcea Bridge, Railway bridge across Borcea branch of Danube River in Cernavoda, Romania
The Borcea Bridge is a structure crossing the Borcea branch of the Danube and carrying both road traffic and railway lines. Its design features a truss framework that spans the wide river channel.
The structure was built in the 1980s and replaced an older crossing that had served the area for many years. It represents an important moment in the country's modern infrastructure development.
The bridge links two separate regions of Romania and enables daily movement between communities on opposite banks of the river. It functions as a visible symbol connecting people from different parts of the country.
The bridge is used by trains and vehicles connecting southern coastal areas with the northern interior. Visitors can cross it using public transportation or by car.
The structure carries both cars and trains on separate levels, an uncommon combination in European infrastructure. This dual function allows the river to be crossed in two different ways at a single location.
