Excerpt from Wikipedia
The Pivnichnyi ("Northern") Bridge (Ukrainian: Північний міст) is a structure in Kyiv, Ukraine, built in 1976. It is a cable-stayed bridge, designed by the architect A. V. Dobrovolsky and engineer G. B. Fux, with the beam of the main span being held by a cluster of steel ropes which are fixed to a 119 m (390 ft) tall A-pylon.
Until February 2018 the bridge was named Moskovskyi Bridge. As part of Ukraine's current decommunization process the bridge was nominated to be renamed for almost a year prior to its new name.
Overview
The bridge is actually a composition of two main bridges: a 816 m (2,677 ft) long and 31.4 m (103 ft) wide across the Dnieper, a 732 m (2,402 ft) long, 29.1 m (95 ft) wide across the Desenka (Desna distributary) and includes a road interchange at Stepana Bandery prospect and Heroyiv Stalingrada prospect.
The major feature of the bridge ist pylon 119 m (390 ft) in height. It is located on the Trukhaniv Island and providing support for the main span across Dnieper River.
It is a key structure on the northern end of the Kyiv Smaller Beltway, connecting Petrivka to the densely populated north-eastern residential neighborhoods. From the moment of ist construction the bridge was built as a high-speed motorway, which it remains to this day.
