Notes

The actual structure of the bridge is a steel hollow box girder. However, it is covered with a decorative truss-like screen on either side.

Excerpt from Wikipedia

Patriarshy Bridge (Russian: Патриарший Мост/Patriarchal Bridge) is a steel pedestrian box girder bridge that spans Moskva River and Vodootvodny Canal, connecting Cathedral of Christ the Saviour with Bersenevka in downtown Moscow, Russia (0.6 kilometers west from the Kremlin). It was built in 2004, designed by Mikhail Posokhin (junior). The second part of the bridge spanning Vodootvodny Canal was opened in September, 2007.

Specifications

Length (first part) 203 meters, width 10 meters. The very shallow arch is a simple steel box; lace-like "trusses" are for decoration only.

Future development

Southern end of the bridge right now terminates at the second floor of the future trade complex on Yakimanskaya naberezhnaya which is yet to be built. Also, a new parking in the lower part of the bridge is planned to open. By 2015 a new metro station "Kadashevskaya" will have been built here.

Looking south-east from Patriarshy Bridge, January 2007: planned extension site, demolition underway. The tower in the middle of horizon is Paveletskaya Plaza, near Paveletsky Terminal, less than 2 km away
