Belelyubsky Bridge, Arch bridge in Borovichi, Russia

The Belelyubsky Bridge is a pedestrian arch bridge over the Msta River in Borovichi, linking the Torgovaya and Spasskaya sides of town along Kropotkin Street. Built in 1901–1905 to a design by Nikolay Belelyubsky with engineer Andrey Pshenitsky, it was Russia's first bridge with arched trusses carrying the deck at the bottom. Its single riveted steel span is a three-hinged arch without a tie, 107 m long with a 19 m rise.

The bridge was built between 1901 and 1905 to a design by Nikolay Belelyubsky, a professor at the Saint Petersburg Institute of Transport Engineers, with engineer Andrey Pshenitsky. It was the first bridge in Russia to use a three-hinged through arch without a tie. The Moscow Metal Works company supplied the steel structures under a contract signed in November 1901.

The bridge carries the name of its builder, which is rare for an engineering structure in Russia. For the people of Borovichi, it is a familiar part of the townscape that they pass through on a daily basis.

The bridge links Kropotkin Street on the Trading side with Gagarin Passage on the Spasskaya side of Borovichi, so it is crossed on foot from the town centre. Its deck runs between two riveted arches 7.38 m apart, with the walkway carried at mid-height of the trusses. Lighting is mounted on portal frames at both ends and on brackets along the lower chords.

Of all the bridges Belelyubsky designed during his lifetime, this is the only one that officially carries his name. He was also one of the first engineers in Russia to study metal arch construction in a systematic way.
