Shambat Bridge, Road bridge in Khartoum North, Sudan

Shambat Bridge was a concrete arch structure spanning the Nile River between Khartoum North and Omdurman. The bridge featured prestressed concrete construction and served as a major vehicular crossing for the capital region.

Sudan's government under Ibrahim Abboud tendered the project internationally; Italy's Recchi won and the foundation stone was laid in 1962, with construction running from 1963 to 1965 and the official opening in 1966. It was the first prestressed concrete bridge an Italian firm built abroad. On 11 September 2023 a span between two piers was destroyed, putting the bridge out of service; about 170 m needed rebuilding.

The name comes from the Shambat neighbourhood of Khartoum North, where the larger western stretch of the bridge ends. Its four vehicle lanes and two pedestrian walkways made it a daily crossing point between Omdurman and Khartoum North until the central section was destroyed in September 2023.

The bridge was freely accessible to pedestrians and vehicles moving between both sides of the river. Its location along the Nile made it a heavily traveled route for daily commuting and commerce.

The bridge stood at the geographical coordinates of 15.644253 latitude and 32.506061 longitude, near the confluence of the Blue and White Nile rivers.
