Admiralty Bridge, Metal and concrete bridge in Kolpino, Russia
Admiralty Bridge spans the Soviet Canal in Kolpino and features steel beams with concrete decking. The structure is about 50 meters long and 20 meters wide, serving both vehicle and pedestrian traffic.
A wooden structure with stone abutments was built in 1809 under architect D. Makli's supervision. The structure was later rebuilt multiple times and received its current name in 2012 following a nearby street renaming.
The bridge links two key areas of the city and shapes how locals navigate their daily routes. Residents pass through it regularly as part of their movement through the neighborhood.
The bridge has two lanes for vehicles and separate pedestrian paths on both sides with concrete barriers. The location is easily accessible on foot and offers good access for visitors.
The structure owes its name to a 2012 street renaming that reflected local administrative changes. This shows how urban names shift to match broader city developments.
