Road bridge across the Desna, Road bridge over Desna River in Chernihiv, Ukraine
The bridge spans 600 meters across the Desna River, incorporating four traffic lanes, bicycle paths, and pedestrian walkways for urban connectivity.
The original crossing from 1859 served the Odesa-Kyiv-Chernihiv-Saint Petersburg route until Russian forces destroyed it during the 2022 invasion.
The bridge functions as a central meeting point for residents of Chernihiv, connecting the city's districts while providing views of the river.
Construction of the new structure includes underground passages, accessibility ramps, and reinforced concrete designed to withstand heavy traffic loads.
The bridge holds a national record for having Ukraine's longest monolithic reinforced concrete span with post-tensioned reinforcement.
