Berezhkovsky Bridge, Bridge structure across Moskva River in Khamovniki and Dorogomilovo Districts, Russia
The Berezhkovsky Bridge crosses the Moskva River with a main span of roughly 135 meters (443 feet), connecting the Khamovniki and Dorogomilovo Districts. Its reinforced concrete structure carries a wide roadway designed to handle significant traffic flow between these parts of the city.
The bridge opened in 1998 to improve traffic connections between the two riverbank districts. It was part of a broader wave of infrastructure projects that modernized Moscow's transportation network during that period.
The bridge structure incorporates design elements from Viennese Art Nouveau, reflecting architectural traditions found in other Moscow bridges across the Moskva River.
The bridge carries the Third Ring Road and connects to nearby metro stations and bus routes for wider mobility. Pedestrians can find shops and covered areas beneath the structure that provide shelter from weather.
Beneath the bridge lies a covered commercial zone with glass shelter where pedestrians can access services while staying protected from weather. This sheltered passageway is less commonly known compared to other Moscow crossing points.
