Don River Bridge, Rostov-on-Don

Project description

Between 2007 and 2010, a network of bridges and overpasses was constructed in the city of Rostov-on-Don in southern Russia. This included a steel/concrete composite structure across the River Don.

The project consisted of 2 phases. In the first phase, in 2008, a multi-span bridge over the River Don was built. In the second phase, in 2009, this was extended with multi-span overpasses at both ends, resulting in a total length of 966 m.

The bridge was designed by the St. ­Petersburg engineering firm TransMost, and constructed by the Moscow contractor MostoTrest.
