Ostružnica Bridge, Road bridge in Ostružnica, Serbia
Ostružnica Bridge is a road bridge spanning the Sava River and connecting sections of the Belgrade bypass with multiple traffic lanes for through traffic. The structure uses a long span to cross the river and route vehicles around the city center.
The original bridge construction started in 1990 and sustained damage from NATO bombing in 1999. Reconstruction efforts took place over the following years to restore full traffic functionality.
The bridge represents a major achievement in Serbian engineering, demonstrating the nation's capabilities in large-scale infrastructure development.
This is a working traffic route used by all vehicle types from cars to heavy trucks throughout the day. Visitors can view the structure from the riverbank or observe it while traveling through the region.
Heavy steel sections were transported by barge across the Sava during construction, which was a significant logistical undertaking for the time. This method allowed large components to reach the construction site without relying solely on land-based transport.
