Bolshoy Krasnokholmsky Bridge

Bolshoy Krasnokholmsky Bridge (Russian: Большо́й Краснохо́лмский мост) is a steel arch bridge that spans Moskva River in downtown Moscow, Russia, carrying Garden Ring between Tagansky District and Zamoskvorechye Districts.

It was located roughly 100 meters south from the centerline of present-day Garden Ring, spanned by one or two wooden bridges.

[3] Struwe, like his predecessors, built his bridge at nearly right angle to river flow - with an unnecessary kink in the path of Garden Ring.

They are made of SDS steel (Специальная Дворца Советов, Palace of Soviets Special).

Deck and approach ramps (excluding their side walls) were torn apart and replaced.
