Chugunny bridge, Road bridge in Zamoskvorechye District, Russia

The Chugunny Bridge is a road crossing that spans the Vodootvodny Canal and joins Pyatnitskaya Street with Balchug. It serves as a key passage linking several embankments within the Zamoskvorechye District.

The bridge was built in 1889 as part of Moscow's infrastructure expansion in the late nineteenth century. It underwent a major reconstruction in 1966 to adapt to modern traffic needs.

The name comes from the cast-iron arches of the 1835 bridge by engineer P. Ya. Vitte, and it survived the later iron and concrete rebuilds. Trams crossed here until 1963, when service was moved to the Komissariatsky Bridge and Sadovnichesky Proyezd. The railings are 1889 castings kept in the 1966 reconstruction.

The bridge carries traffic between Balchug and Pyatnitskaya Street, a short walk from Novokuznetskaya and Tretyakovskaya metro stations. Trams ran across it until 1963, when the line was moved to the Komissariat Bridge and Sadovnichesky Passage. Its width has stayed at 17.6 m since 1889, with the 1966 deck resting on the old river piers.

The railings on the current span are castings from 1889, kept when the 1966 bridge replaced ten iron beams with eleven reinforced-concrete ones. Trams ran across the bridge until 1963, when service was moved to the Komissariatsky Bridge and Sadovnichesky Passage.
