Pivnichnyi Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Kyiv, Ukraine.
Description
Pivnichnyi Bridge is a cable-stayed structure crossing the Dnieper River in Kyiv, stretching roughly 816 meters in length. An A-shaped pylon reaching about 119 meters tall supports steel cables that carry the main span across the water.
History
The bridge opened on December 3, 1976, originally bearing a different name that was changed in 2018. This renaming was part of a nationwide effort to remove Soviet-era names from public structures.
