Facts and practical information

The Volodarsky Bridge is a moveable bridge across the Neva River in Saint Petersburg, Russia. The bridge connects Narodnaya and Ivanovskaya streets. It is named after V. Volodarsky, a revolutionary, who was killed near the future bridge in 1918. It is the only bridge in the city with an overpass for trams. The bridge is part of the Central Arc Thoroughfare. In 1932-1936, according to engineer G.P. Peredery's project, a three-span reinforced concrete arch bridge with a metal double-winged drawbridge was built. In 1986-1993, the old bridge was dismantled and replaced with a metal girder. The bridge length is 332 meters, the width is 24–27 meters. Upstream is the Bolshoy Obukhovsky Bridge, and below is the Finland Railway Bridge. ()
