Kaidatsky Bridge

The Kaidatsky Bridge is a road bridge crossing the Dnieper River in Dnipro, linking districts on both riverbanks. It carries multiple lanes of traffic in each direction and serves as a major transport corridor through the city.

Construction of the bridge began in the 1970s and was completed in the early 1980s. It was built as a major transport project to improve river crossing connections in the city.

The name comes from a former Cossack settlement that sat on this river crossing centuries ago, linking the bridge to the region's heritage. Locals still use this historical reference when talking about the crossing today.

The bridge is well-marked and easy to find since it carries a major European route through the city. Expect traffic congestion during peak times, especially in the morning and evening.

Beneath the bridge lies an island that holds an arboretum with trees and plants from the region. This green space offers a natural contrast to the busy road above it.
