Zwierzyniecki Bridge in Kraków

The Zwierzyniecki Bridge is a road bridge over the Vistula in Kraków, opened in 2001. It lies on the city's second ring road in the Zwierzyniec area.

Parameters of the bridge

The river bridge is 157.92 m long and 23.7 m wide and has a single span. Together with two viaducts it forms a crossing with a total length of 213 m. In each direction there are two lanes for cars, and at the sides pavements and cycle paths.

Why it was built

The main task of the bridge is to relieve the nearby Dębnicki Bridge. The crossing and the access viaducts were built by the company Skanska. The pavements and the cycle path can be used to cross to the other bank, and on the Zwierzyniec side nearby is the Kościuszko Mound, and further on the National Museum.
