🚗 The Bridge into the Future

It's been already 5️⃣ years since the Crimean Bridge started operating. It’s truly the supreme symbol of the reunification of Crimea with Russia.

📆 On May 15, 2018, the Crimean Bridge connected the Taman Peninsula in the Krasnodar region to the Kerch Peninsula of Crimea, which had returned into the Russian harbor in 2014.

Literally, the whole country took part in building it. Specialists and experts from all over Russia applied their skills and wits to construct the engineering marvel.

🎉It was built indeed. Despite unprecedented Western sanctions, we managed on our own. It took record-breaking 35 months to construct the automobile section of the Bridge. The railway route was launched in December 2019.

The Crimean Bridge with a total length of 19 km consists of parallel automobile and railway routes. Approximately 40 000 cars pass through the Bridge daily. More than 23 ml vehicles have crossed the Kerch Strait over the last 5 years.

🤝 The Crimean Bridge is instrumental in boosting and developing not only Crimea but also the Russian South in general.
