The new bridge is called the Central Bridge. It will connect the street Hippodromskaya on the right bank with the street Station on the left and will run parallel to the existing railway crossing.
The general contractor of the facility is the Russian infrastructure holding VIS. All changes on the construction site can be observed in the news feed of the group https://vis-group.ru/
The sliding started in March 2021. Upon completion of construction, the length of the span structure will be 776 meters, the total weight will be 10.4 thousand. tons. Another machine with high-strength fastener LLC ZVK "BERVEL" went to the facility today.
Metal structures are being assembled at stage 7. Work is carried out simultaneously at 8 sites on both banks in round-the-clock mode. The largest construction of the bridge crossing with a height of 114 meters - a pylon in the form of the letter "N" - grows before the eyes: once in 9 days the formwork is rearranged, the pylon grows by 4 meters. Such "replacements" will be performed only 29 pieces.
The pylon with the help of cable-stayed structures will hold the continuous metal span structure of the bridge with a length of 380.63 linear meters. This will allow to preserve the park adjacent to the Mikhailovsky embankment with the preservation of two monuments - bridge builders and Alexander III.
