Автомобильный мост через Волхов

The Volkhov River bridge is a road structure in Kirishi that carries traffic across the river connecting the city's main areas. It forms part of the regional highway network serving the industrial districts on both banks.

An original structure from 1966 served the city for decades until it was replaced by a new bridge completed in 2024. The replacement was built to accommodate current traffic demands and modern engineering standards.

The bridge construction incorporated engineering solutions specific to the Leningrad region, reflecting local construction methods and regional infrastructure development.

The bridge carries regular traffic and connects the city with the broader road network of the Leningrad region. Visitors can cross it by vehicle to explore different parts of the city and surrounding areas.

The new structure incorporates polystyrene foam extensively to create a lightweight embankment on the soft ground beside the Volkhov River. This engineering solution helps distribute the bridge's weight and prevents settling issues in problematic soil.
