Molvinsky Bridge

Categories / Architecture/Bridges
MOLVINSKY BRIDGE, over the Tarakanovka River, links Liflyandskaya Street and Kalinina Street. Received its name from the summer cottage of merchant Y.N. Molvo. From the late 18th century at this spot was a timber beam bridge, rebuilt in 1828 as a three-span arch bridge on brick abutments and cast iron column piers (engineers P.P. Bazen, B. Clapeyron). In the early 20th century it was replaced with a timber five-span bridge with a length of 54 metres. The present bridge is a single-span, reinforced concrete girder bridge, built in 1983-84 (engineers L.N. Sobolev, S.S. Nadtochy). The facades are fitted with granite arches. Length: 25 metres, width: 27 metres.
