PETROVSKY BOLSHOY BRIDGE, over two branches of the Malaya Nevka River, linking Petrovsky Island and Primorsky Park Pobedy (Park of Victory, on Krestovsky Island). In 1838, a wooden drawbridge functioned here. In 1946-1948, metal girders were laid on the bridge (engineer V.V. Blazhevich). The bridge comprises 24 spans, one span over the right channel is of movable, four-leaf bascule structure, with a fixed rotation axis and a rigidly fastened end block; in the left channel two spans are navigable. The bridge is 301.9 metres long and 18.1 metres wide. In December 1993, during the shearing of the ice-field two wooden piers were ruined and three were damaged. The bridge was rebuilt as a pedestrian bridge (engineer L.V. Voronina); the width of movable spans is up to nine metres while that of the right-bank fixed spans amounts to three metres, while the width of the other spans equalling 2.25 metres. The piers have reinforced-concrete sidewalls based on metal pipe piles.

D. Y. Guzevich, S.Z. Suponitsky, N.M. Kozlovskaya.
