Kantemirovsky Bridge, Bascule bridge over Bolshaya Nevka River, Saint Petersburg, Russia
The Kantemirovsky Bridge extends 664 meters in length and 32.3 meters in width, featuring 15 spans with a central draw section connecting Aptekarsky Island to Vyborgskiy District.
The current bridge, constructed from 1979 to 1982, replaced a boat bridge that served the crossing point from 1817 to facilitate transportation between city districts.
The bridge name stems from Kantemirovskaya Street, referencing the Moldavian princes Dimitrie and Constantin Cantemir who joined Russian nobility in the 18th century.
The bridge operates on a scheduled lifting system from April to November, allowing larger vessels to pass through the Bolshaya Nevka River during nighttime hours.
The bridge features metal pyramidal tower masts with 12 lamps on draw span supports and railing patterns matching those of Tuchkov Bridge for visual consistency.
