The Sibrevcomovsky Bridge (Russian: Сибревкомовский мост, Sibrevcomovsky Most) is a pedestrian bridge over the Ippodromskya Street, connecting the Tsentralny and Oktyabrsky districts of Novosibirsk, Russia. It was opened on November 7, 1926 by architect M. A. Ulianinsky. Previously, it was a road bridge.[1][2]

Initially, it crossed the Kamenka River, but then the river was enclosed in a tunnel.[2]

Bridge name[edit]

The bridge is named after Sibrevcom Street.[3]

History[edit]

The Sibrevcomovsky Bridge was constructed from May 1925 to November 1926.[2]

Until the 1960s, it was a dangerous place. Frequent robberies occurred on the bridge.[2]

In the 1980s, the bridge became a pedestrian walkway.[2]
