What exactly will be repaired?
The repair will include replacing a damaged expansion joint (dilatačné zariadenie), foundation repair, and renewing the road surface. This work is important to ensure the safety and durability of the bridge, which is a key transport route in Bratislava.
How will this affect traffic?
The work will be done in stages in one of the closed traffic lanes, according to the approved traffic management plan. This means traffic will continue, but with minor lane restrictions. The Old Town borough asks drivers and other road users to be as careful as possible and follow the temporary road signs.
Recommendations for drivers
- Plan your route in advance: Consider possible delays, especially during rush hour.
- Be attentive: Follow temporary road signs and instructions from workers.
- Consider alternatives: If possible, use public transport or other routes to avoid traffic jams.
The SNP Bridge, also known as the UFO Bridge, is not only an important structure connecting the Old Town with the Petržalka district, but also an architectural landmark of Bratislava. Its repair is a necessary step to maintain the city's infrastructure.
