The Staryi Bridge, over the Dnieper River in Dnipro, Ukraine

The Staryi Bridge (Ukrainian: Старий міст, lit.'Old Bridge'), formerly known as Amurskyi Bridge (Ukrainian: Амурський міст), is a combined double-decker (road and rail) bridge across the Dnieper River in the city of Dnipro. It connects the Tsentralnyi (Central) and Nyzhnodniprovskyi districts of the city.[1][2] On 29 July 2024, the bridge was renamed to comply with derussification laws, and thus its old name was returned.[3]
