Navigation bridge layout schedule. Bridge construction schedule in navigation Where to watch bridge construction

Looking at the beautifully drawn bridges in St. Petersburg is a ritual. There is no other way to explain why even many of the city’s indigenous residents come to the center at least once at night every season so that, sometimes shivering from the cool air and warming themselves with cognac, they can meditate for the hundredth time on the ten-minute spectacle. Apparently the ritual is worth it. More precisely: it’s really worth it.

Schedule for raising bridges in St. Petersburg in 2019

We provide in our article a schedule of crossings Northern capital, however, please keep in mind that it may change on a particular day.

There are many sites on the Internet where the time of divorce is published, but there is only one official source: the State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest, which is directly responsible, as its name implies, for these very bridges. His website: by the way, is very convenient and nice. When you go to a bridge show, be sure to check in and make sure nothing has changed in the schedule. The same rule works if you are going to spend part of the night on Vasilyevsky Island or Petrogradskaya Side, after which you need to “ mainland"or vice versa.

Note that since 2017, two bridges - Dvortsovy and Troitsky - are being opened 15 minutes earlier than in previous years. This was done at the request of companies that conduct excursions along the rivers and canals of the city. Tourists now have an extra 15 minutes to sail under the raised bridges and admire the famous postcard views of the Northern capital in the absence of large cargo ships, for which, in fact, these bridges are raised :)

Current bridge construction schedule for 2019

The opening of Sampsonievsky, Grenadersky, Kantemirovsky bridges is carried out from 1:30 to 4:30 upon prior request 2 days in advance.

When does the bridge construction end?
In accordance with the Decree of the Government of St. Petersburg, bridges are raised:
— on the branches of the Neva from April 20 to November 15;
- on the Neva and Malaya Neva, that is, including in relation to the most popular bridges - Dvortsovoy, Troitsky and Blagoveshchensky - from April 10 to November 30.

But we must keep in mind that these are general parameters that are adjusted depending on the ice conditions and the presence of ships that need to navigate the Neva. In autumn, especially deep autumn, the flow of ships gradually decreases, and if on a specific date there are no applications for the passage of dry cargo ships and tankers, then the bridges remain in a closed position. The same thing happens if suddenly the Neva is covered with ice in November, as sometimes happened, and, accordingly, not a single ship can pass.

Where to watch the bridges being raised

In total, nine bridges in St. Petersburg “spread their wings” on a permanent basis, and three more - upon special request. Of these in tourist center There are three cities - Blagoveshchensky, Dvortsovy and Troitsky, which are located next to each other.

There are several options for how to look at this whole show:

1) Stand next to the Palace Bridge (next to the Hermitage), see its opening close up and little or almost nothing from Trinity. This is the most common and, accordingly, the most crowded method.

2) Stand next to Troitsky, look first at Dvortsovy from a kilometer away, and then closely at Troitsky. Also, in general, so-so.

3) Ours: wisely choose a point between two bridges and see everything.

4) Without the fuss and crowd, look at the rising Palace Bridge from Vasilyevsky Island, from the Kunstkamera.

Now briefly about each.

Option 1 is a classic scheme for beginners

The Palace Bridge opened at 01.25 (since 2017 - at ten o'clock). Tourists and other inexperienced people cling to the embankments - Dvortsovaya and Admiralteyskaya - on both sides of the bridge (we mean the end of the bridge that is located on the " mainland", near the Hermitage, and not on Vasilyevsky Island) to be as close to the action as possible.

It looks like this:

Moreover, the crowd on warm days, including weekdays, gathers about forty minutes to an hour before the start, so it is very difficult to get into the first row of the “parterre”, you have to stand on tiptoe and jump out from behind. It’s good if you are 190+ centimeters, but if you are short, then there is nothing to catch.

There is also a “gallery” option: the Hermitage overlooks the Palace Embankment near the Palace Bridge, and it has a high porch on this side, look at the photos below.

But even there, however, there is not much space - there definitely won’t be enough for everyone when the house is full.

When the Palace is opened, everyone first admires and takes pictures, and then most of the crowd rushes to the Trinity Bridge. However, Troitsky is divorced only 10 minutes later than Dvortsovy, that is, right around the very moment when admiring Dvortsov ends.

And the distance between them is 1.24 kilometers. And running in two minutes, or even ten, from one bridge to another is quite difficult. As a result, you come to the Trinity Bridge when it is already all gone. There is an option to look at Troitsky from afar, but as practice shows, you can’t really see anything.

However, if one bridge, and the most picturesque one at that, is enough for you, and the day turns out to be cold, rainy and weekday, that is, there will not be a large crowd, then option 1 is your option.

Option 2 – watch only Trinity

This scheme has the advantage that the embankments in the area of ​​the Trinity Bridge are very small, so you will have almost no competitors. You will also see the Palace, but from a kilometer away, that is, approximately, in general terms - which, of course, is a minus.

Well, Trinity is all yours. At the same time, only one flight of stairs rises, which is very large in size, so the spectacle, especially if you are standing next to it, is monumental.

Option 3 – the golden mean

We found a point between the two bridges, which, in our opinion, allows us to look at the separation of both from an acceptable distance. This place is on Palace Embankment opposite the building at number 26.

This is what the Palace Bridge looks like from this point:

And this is Troitsky (the photo was taken in front of the neighboring building, Palace Embankment 18).

The downside is that you will be a rare spectator, that is, you will not feel the emotional tension of the crowd. But for photographs taken from a tripod with a decent camera with a good lens, it’s just the thing.

Option 4 – calm

We are watching the separation of the Palace Bridge from the University Embankment (next to the VO Strelka). We stand at the parapet of the Neva somewhere opposite the Kunstkamera. The view from there will be like in this photo.

On the opposite side of the Neva is the Admiralty, which is where you get the classic postcard views with Peter and Paul Fortress and the spread wings of the Palace Bridge. From our point of view, of course, there is no such view. But there are also obvious advantages.

Firstly, there are significantly fewer people here than on the other bank of the Neva. You can take a seat in the first row at the parapet 5 minutes before the bridge opens.

Secondly, from the nearby Spit of Vasilyevsky Island you can take excellent photographs of the same Peter and Paul Fortress, albeit without a bridge.

Thirdly, anyone who lives in the north or on Vaska will not be forced to hang out somewhere in the center after the bridge raising show. To get to the Petrogradskaya side you need to cross the Birzhevoy Bridge (or Tuchkov), and from Petrogradka at any time, for example, through the Kamennoostrovsky and Ushakovsky bridges to your place - to the northern districts of the city. Fortunately, these crossings are not separated. Or go by Kronverkskaya embankment look at the divorced Trinity, enjoying the magnificent views along the way.

If you suddenly didn’t have time to cross the Birzhevoy Bridge before it opened, it doesn’t matter. You can now leave Vaska via the Western High-Speed ​​Diameter (WHSD), both to the north of the city and to the south.

Option 5 – looking from the water. Night boat ride under bridges

From the water the impression is completely different, and this is not a rehash of water barkers, everything really is so.
Night boat excursions are organized almost the same as daytime ones, as you can read about - in the sense that the vessels are the same, from double-decker motor ships to small troughs with a motor; The night is a little longer and the cost is higher. For example: 1.5 hours for 800 - 1000 rubles depending on the type of vessel and duration instead of 1 hour and 700 rubles during the day.

You can book such an excursion by clicking on the banner below.

It is important to warn you right away: if the excursion starts after 00.00, then when purchasing online you need to choose the very date that started after these 00.00. If the excursion is on the night of June 24-25, then you need to buy on June 25.

Option 6 – looking from the rooftops. The best viewpoints

Someone's hands and backs won't prevent you from seeing the magical action of raising the St. Petersburg bridges. From the roof, the water area of ​​the Neva will be clearly visible. And not only Neva. This is also a unique chance to look at the city itself from above! Your photos will be the envy of everyone, including professional photographers :) You can choose one of three roofs on the side of the Neva convenient for you, where our guides will take you.
You can read about the excursion and order it.

2. Selfie sticks are very helpful when there is a large crowd. The sidewalk along the embankment, from which you will take photos with the bridge in the background, is narrow, and a lot of people walk along it.

3. If you really, really need nice photos or video, the most important of all photographic equipment is a tripod. It’s better to forget the camera, but you need to take a tripod, because you can still ask someone for a camera, but most likely you won’t have a tripod.

4. People drive along the embankment and next to it, ready to take you home. Firstly, the further you are from the bridges, the cheaper they are; secondly, official taxis are more reliable, safer, and if more expensive, then not by much.

5. For bicycle lovers, take a bike; if you don’t have your own, there is a bike rental. You'll have to swear while trying to squeeze through the crowd, but (due to the mobility of your two-wheeled friend) you can see the opening of three bridges at once: Blagoveshchensky, Dvortsovoy and Troitsky.

6. For those who want such a classic photograph from St. Petersburg:

you need to take a place next to the Palace Bridge on the Promenade des Anglais, opposite the Admiralty.

Yes, but what about, you ask, the same bridge on which the art group “War” wrote a word in which the first letter is the second letter in the word “ear”, and the second letter is the first letter in the word “ear” , and so on? This Liteyny Bridge, it is also located in the center - two kilometers from Nevsky Prospekt along Liteiny. True, it is not particularly popular among tourists. But if anything, he gets divorced at 01.40.

Ivan Semenov

Compared to last year, there has been a change in the schedule for the construction of bridges on the Neva. one change. After the opening of the Tuchkov Bridge, which was under reconstruction last year, the number of extensions of the Birzhevoy Bridge has changed (previously it duplicated the schedule of the Tuchkov Bridge) - the adjustable wings of this crossing, instead of twice, will be raised once a night - from 2-00 to 4-55 in the morning . Tuchkov Bridge returns to its previous mode - two connections: from 2-00 to 2-55 and from 3-35 to 4-55.

The schedule for raising the remaining bridges remains the same: the Blagoveshchensky, Dvortsovy and Volodarsky bridges will be raised twice a night, and the Troitsky, Liteiny, Bolsheokhtinsky bridges and the Alexander Nevsky Bridge - once. The wiring time has also not changed.

Sampsonievsky, Grenadiersky and Kantemirovsky bridges are still being raised upon prior request two days in advance. Their distribution time is from 1-30 to 4-30.

The current bridge construction schedule is available on the information portal of the St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest:https://mostotrest-spb.ru/ .

Bridges are erected in accordance with Government decree St. Petersburg dated November 29, 2006 No. 1480 “On approval of the rules for the operation of bridges and embankments in St. Petersburg", namely: from April 20 to November 15 - on the branches of the Neva, from April 10 to November 30 - on the Neva and Malaya Neva.

In 2017, during the period of navigation along the Neva, St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest carried out 2356 wiring bridges - 39 more than in 2016. During this time, the Neva passed 3344 ships, including 1704 upstream and 1640 downstream.

The leader in the number of wiring became Palace Bridge: during the entire navigation period he was bred 421 once. In second place is Blagoveshchensky: its indicator is 420 . On the third - Volodarsky Bridge: he was bred 377 once. All three crossings are the first or last (depending on the direction of travel) within the city for most ships traveling in Lake Ladoga or the Gulf of Finland.

In addition, in connection with the implementation of escort work along the Neva River in safe area The bulk carrier "Omsky - 132" in conditions of difficult ice conditions in a high-alert mode, St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution "Mostotrest" carried out the unscheduled opening of the Volodarsky Bridge and the unscheduled opening of the Dvortsovoy and Blagoveshchensky bridges on the night of November 19-20, 2016.

In preparation for the new season in internavigation period 2017-2018 Specialists from St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest carried out maintenance and adjustment of the entire volume of equipment on the bridges, diagnostics and revision of their mechanisms, as well as selective repairs or replacement of individual units based on the results of the inspection.

All bridges received LED floodlights for the drawbridge illumination system.

An inspection of all serviced bearings of the rotation axes of drawbridges and maintenance of the supporting parts of all drawbridges was also carried out, and measurements of the insulation resistance of supply cables and internal cable lines were carried out.

On the Volodarsky Bridge, new rod seals were installed on the hydraulic cylinders of the wing drive, and the pump of the pumping unit for the hydraulic drive of the draw span was replaced. On the Alexander Nevsky Bridge, repairs of hydraulic drive pumping units were carried out, on Bolsheokhtinsky Bridge, repairs were carried out on the supply control mechanisms of hydraulic drive pumping units, and on Liteiny, a hydraulic cylinder was repaired with the replacement of the rod and cover in the drive, as well as the pumping unit.

Sampsonievsky Bridge received a modernized draw span control scheme. On the Kantemirovsky Bridge, two rotation axle bearings were replaced on the wing of the draw span.

New lighting for ship passages of stationary spans has been installed on the Blagoveshchensky, Dvortsovoy and Birzhevoy bridges. During the non-navigation period, new LED modules of signaling systems were placed on the Alexander Nevsky Bridge, Birzhevoy, Volodarsky and Sampsonievsky bridges.

To prepare for navigation, St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest carried out 51 bridges. The Tuchkov Bridge, which was opened after reconstruction in November last year, was opened the most - 18 times.

One of the most beautiful cities Europe, which is St. Petersburg, should be beautiful in everything. Palaces, museums, parks and, of course, bridges! Without this means of communication it is impossible to imagine this amazing city. These buildings can rightfully be called one of the most striking symbols of the city on the Neva. The total number of bridges in the city is more than 300, with 13 of them being opened in principle, and 9 according to schedule. The start of the “season” for raising bridges is the beginning of navigation along the Neva. In April, when ice on the river does not interfere with navigation, the season begins and closes at the end of November.

The process of raising bridges has long become an attraction that every tourist wants to see. That's why many travel companies They pay great attention to this point in their routes. The natural time for building bridges is night. From about one in the morning until five in the morning, you can watch the gigantic “wings” of the bridges rise up, as if huge birds with luminous plumage are preparing to take off from the ground and fly away.

Admire beauty the right way!

To best understand the process of raising bridges, it is worth listening to some of the advice given below.

You can admire the raised bridges while walking, but it’s better to drive along the embankments: the first four bridges across the Neva are raised in an interval of 15–20 minutes. A good place for observation is the Spit of Vasilyevsky Island. From this perspective you will be able to observe the opening of the Palace and Trinity bridges. In addition to watching the process, you can listen to the musical fountain. The Palace, Admiralteyskaya and Universitetskaya embankments are becoming increasingly popular. The largest audience gathers there.

You can choose bus tour, during which you will be driven along the Neva. These tours usually have stops and you can get closer to the bridge spans. Another option is to go to water excursion or order individual walk on a boat. When bridges are raised, a great number of them gather in the Neva waters.

Exceptional Exceptions

It is worth noting that on days public holidays bridges do not open. And, conversely, on Navy Day, Day River fleet, “Scarlet Sails” - the bridges are raised during the day. And one more feature: weather conditions, whether it is a wind of 15 meters per second or an air temperature of more than 25 degrees, can become a stumbling block for raising bridges.

Note to motorists: not all navigator programs take into account the opening of bridges when laying out routes around the city at night.

Advice: From a practical side, it should be said: at the time of divorce, be on the side where you live, otherwise you will have a pleasant, but not always desirable, walk through the night St. Petersburg.

Having studied the detailed schedule for raising bridges, I think you will be interested to know that:

• Each span of the Palace Bridge weighs 700 tons.
• While parked near the Blagoveshchensky Bridge, the legendary cruiser Aurora fired its shot, which served as the beginning of the assault Winter Palace in 1917.
• Trinity Bridge is the work of the famous architect Eiffel, who is also the author of the famous Parisian Eiffel Tower. According to legend, it was under this bridge that the pilot Chkalov once flew, having received the strictest punishment from the authorities for his hooliganism.
• The longest drawbridge is the Alexander Nevsky Bridge. Its length, without coastal structures, is 629 meters, including ramps - almost 906 meters.
• Bolsheokhtinsky Bridge has the largest span - 136 meters!
• The Liteiny Bridge has the longest drawable wing in the world. The length of this wing is 67 meters.
• most beautiful view The view of the city opens from the Kirovsky (Troitsky) Bridge across the Neva, built in 1903. On the one side Summer garden, Petrovskaya embankment. On the other side Peter and Paul Fortress, Spit of Vasilyevsky Island, Palace Embankment with the Hermitage.

Every year, from April to November, drawbridges provide navigation along the Neva River, creating the necessary conditions for navigation. The erection of bridges in St. Petersburg and their installation in accordance with the schedule is a priority area of ​​work for the St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest.

There are 18 drawbridges in St. Petersburg - those whose drawbridge mechanisms are still in working order. Of these, 12 crossings are regularly opened during the navigation period:

• Troitsky, Liteiny, Bolsheokhtinsky, Alexander Nevsky and Volodarsky bridges - across the Neva River;
• Blagoveshchensky and Palace Bridges— across the Bolshaya Neva, connecting the central part of the city and Vasilievsky Island;;
• Birzhevoy and Tuchkov bridges - across the Malaya Neva, which connect the Petrograd side with Vasilyevsky Island;
• Sampsonievsky, Grenadiersky and Kantemirovsky bridges - across the Bolshaya Nevka.

The raising of bridges across the Bolshaya Neva, Malaya Neva and Neva is carried out in accordance with the approved schedule. Including Blagoveshchensky, Dvortsovy, Birzhevoy, Tuchkov and Volodarsky bridges, they are usually raised and rebuilt twice a night.

Three bridges across the Bolshaya Nevka are being built according to preliminary applications, which must be submitted two days in advance.

Drawbridges in St. Petersburg vary in design - each crossing has its own characteristics.

The draw spans of the Neva crossings can be single-winged, like those of the Troitsky, Liteiny, Volodarsky, Grenadersky and Kantemirovsky bridges, or double-winged, like the others. But they all belong to the drop-down system: in the spread position, the wings are raised up.

However, this was not always the case - half a century ago, the Liteiny and Kirovsky (now Troitsky) bridges had a rotating system of drawbridges: to allow ships through, the wings moved apart in a horizontal plane. This significantly limited the shipping dimensions, so in 1965-1967 the crossings were reconstructed.

A unique sliding-opening drawbridge system is located at the Birzhevoy Bridge. At the beginning of the deployment, the bridge opens by 15 centimeters, the wings roll away from each other, the center of gravity of the wing changes, and this greatly facilitates the deployment. This design has no analogues in the world. The Grenadier Bridge also has its own peculiarity: it is opened in three stages with short stops.

Most of the bridges in St. Petersburg are raised using the latest hydraulic systems. The exception is the Birzhevoy and Sampsonievsky bridges, whose wiring is carried out using an electromechanical drive. On some bridges - for example, on Dvortsovoy or Sampsonievsky - the unique possibility of manual wiring has also been preserved.

Modern hydraulics allow the bridge to be fully extended in 2-5 minutes, and the bridge is erected in the same amount of time.

During navigation, up to 50 ships can pass under the wings of the Neva bridges per night. The layout of St. Petersburg bridges and their guidance are provided by highly qualified teams of mechanics from the St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest. In winter, between navigations, Mostotrest specialists carry out scheduled repairs and debugging of all mechanisms and systems, which allows us to be confident in the reliable and uninterrupted operation of drawbridges across the Neva and its branches.

The bridges are being raised exactly on schedule. But the crossing can be completed ahead of schedule, when all the ships have passed. In some cases, the second wiring may also be cancelled.

For convenience ground transport and pedestrians of St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest has developed a unique online warning system that allows you to find out in real time whether the bridge is open or closed right now to build optimal route around the city. This information, as well as the most accurate bridge construction schedule for the current navigation season, is available on the website of the St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest and in mobile application"Bridges of St. Petersburg".

The mission of the bridge is to connect, even when it is apart!
