Kommunalny Bridge, Arch bridge across Ob River in Novosibirsk, Russia.
Kommunalny Bridge is an arch bridge spanning the Ob River in Novosibirsk that connects multiple city districts. The structure carries both vehicle and pedestrian traffic across its entire length, making it a major crossing point in the city.
The bridge was completed in 1955 as a major infrastructure project in the post-war period for the growing industrial city. Its construction demonstrated Soviet engineering capabilities of that decade.
The bridge serves as a gathering point for local residents who regularly participate in events and celebrations throughout different seasons of the year.
The bridge is accessible on foot or by car and provides a direct crossing over the river for daily traffic. Wind can be strong during warmer months, so cyclists should take this into account when planning their crossing.
The bridge features a 127-meter main span that demonstrates the engineering capabilities of Soviet construction methods from the 1950s.
