Нижегородский понтонный мост

The Nizhny Novgorod Pontoon Bridge spans across the Oka River, connecting the Nagorny and Sormovsky districts with a length of 377 meters.

The bridge opened in 1993 as a temporary structure and operated during warm seasons until 2016, when it closed due to the construction of new bridge approaches.

The bridge served as a meeting point for local residents and contributed to the development of the city's transportation network across the Oka River.

The bridge structure included seven barges and could operate at water levels between 64 and 66 meters according to the Baltic system.

During the forest fires of 2010, the right-bank fixed section of the bridge sustained damage and required a month of repairs.
