Umut Bridge, International road bridge at Azerbaijan-Turkey border.

The Umut Bridge extends 286 meters across the Aras River, connecting Turkey and Azerbaijan through a two-lane road structure.

The bridge construction started in 1991 and marked its official inauguration on May 22, 1992, alongside the Dilucu customs checkpoint.

The structure carries different names in regional languages, known as Umut Köprüsü in Turkish and Ümid Körpüsü in Azerbaijani.

Daily traffic on the bridge reaches approximately 2,560 vehicles, serving routes D.080 and M-7 between the two countries.

The location of the current bridge holds historical significance as the site of the 1945 Boraltan Bridge events.
