Makarov Bridge, Road bridge across Iset River in Yekaterinburg, Russia.
Makarov Bridge is a reinforced concrete road bridge that crosses the Iset River and connects Chelyuskintsev and Bebelya streets in central Yekaterinburg. The structure serves both cars and pedestrians with separate lanes for each type of traffic.
The bridge underwent comprehensive renovation and modernization, with its redesigned form presented to the public during Yekaterinburg City Day celebrations on August 20, 2022. This major update reflected the city's commitment to improving its transportation network.
The bridge serves as a daily gathering point where residents and commuters pass through on their way across the city. It shapes how people move through this part of Yekaterinburg and connect different neighborhoods.
Crossing the bridge is straightforward thanks to clear separation between vehicle and pedestrian paths, making it easy to navigate. The structure is accessible at any time of day or night, with lighting that helps you find your way after dark.
In winter, the bridge creates striking silhouettes against the snow-covered Iset River, giving photographers many angles on the city's architecture. The cold season transforms the area into a subject for images that show the contrast between built structures and nature.
