Žeželj Bridge, Road and railway bridge in Novi Sad, Serbia.

The Žeželj Bridge spans roughly 474 meters across the Danube River with two steel arches measuring about 219 and 177 meters. The structure carries two railway tracks on the upper deck and two vehicle lanes on the lower level.

The original bridge was built in 1961, designed by engineer Branko Žeželj. It was destroyed in 1999 during NATO military operations and later rebuilt at the same location.

The bridge links neighborhoods on both sides of the Danube and serves as a daily passage where thousands of people and vehicles meet and cross.

The bridge is open to pedestrians and cyclists and offers good views over the city and river. It is a major traffic hub and can be crowded during daytime hours.

One pillar from the original 1961 bridge was intentionally preserved and built into the new structure. This piece creates a link between the past and the modern reconstruction.
