Yugra Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Surgut, Russia.
Yugra Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge that crosses the Ob River near Surgut. The structure features a single central tower from which cables support the deck on both sides.
Construction began in 1995 and was completed five years later. The bridge transformed transportation links across the region.
The bridge represents a milestone in Russian civil engineering, demonstrating the technical capabilities of post-Soviet infrastructure development in the Khanty-Mansi region.
The bridge is designed primarily for vehicle traffic and serves as a key route through the city. Pedestrians and cyclists can also use it, though they should expect to share the space with cars.
The Yugra Bridge holds the distinction of being the longest single-tower cable-stayed bridge in the world, spanning 408 meters in its central section.
