Štěpánský Most - Štěpánský Most

Something is being repaired forever, traffic is constantly limited ...

Nice place on the Elbe ?

Very beautiful bridge

reviews on the bridge? really? go to the other side with a dry foot SO 5 STARS :-D

There is heavy car traffic, crossing the road is very problematic. The bridge itself from 1912 is of good quality and the view from it on the Elbe is nice.

Heart matter (in the place of residence) and there was one part of Major Zeman shooting here. Otherwise, it's just a bridge, well ...

Stepan Bridge is a steel road bridge built in 1912 across the Labe River in Obříství in the Mělník area. The bridge has been protected since 3 May 1958 under the name Road Bridge Stepansky as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic. It currently runs across the bridge Road I / 9 Prague - Melnik. The bridge was built near the then ferry Na Štěpáně near the village Obříství in the Mělník region and hence its name. The bridge with the technical design of the bending of the upper part of the structure resembles the shape of a chain or rope bridge. The main beams, however, have a different static system and a continuous cantilever triaxial beam with joints. A similar structure was used in the then Austro-Hungarian Empire only in two cases - here, in the Mělník region and at the bridge over Tisza near Tokaj. The bridge was supplied by the then company Pražská mostárna, which was a branch of the First Czech-Moravian Machine Factory in Prague. The construction is dominated by a distinctive portal on the central pillar with pylons topped with pseudo-Gothic turrets with battlements. The construction was also unique in that the foundation of the middle pillar was first used in Bohemia by reinforced concrete according to the promoter of this solution, the engineer Vojtěch Kapsa. Such caissons with riveted reinforcement were also used in the construction of the Hlávka Bridge in Prague. The size of the vessel used for Obříství was 14.28 x 4.80 m, which at that time were large rozměry.Keson was sunk during the construction to a depth of 8.85 meters below the normal level of the Elbe. During the construction it was found that later maintenance of the bridge, protective coatings, would reach CZK 22 million over 20 years. For this reason, the structure was shot blasted and subsequently metallized with zinc. The cost of this surface treatment reached 3.2 million crowns with a seven-year guarantee, but it is assumed that the surface treatment will last 20 years. Specifications The height of the bridge above the ground (top of the middle pillar) is 13 meters above the ground with a passageway at a height of 8 meters. The total length of the bridge is 95.55 meters when divided into two fields of equal length. The original width of the bridge was 6.6 m, when the sidewalks located inside the bridge and road width was only 4.6 m. 1957-1958 passed bridge treatment and sidewalks width of 1.2 meters to be translated outside of the bridge, where they are to today. The bridge project comes from Ing. Karel Šimek, who was later professor at Brno University of Technology. In 2003, the entire bridge underwent a reconstruction of 28 million crowns, carried out by Prague Road and Water Management and the investor was the Road and Motorway Directorate. The original road surface was removed, a new waterproofing and drainage was performed, and then a new surface was laid. At the same time the entire structure was treated. During the reconstruction, the surface bridge closures of Mageba were also installed. Attractions Originally, this bridge construction was to be installed in Croatia, one of the then Austro-Hungarian Empire. In the middle of production, however, it was decided to install it in Obříství.

A beautiful steel road bridge was built near the then Na Štěpáně ferry (hence its name) in 1912 according to a project by Karel Šimek. The technical design resembles chain or rope bridges. The structure is steel, riveted, with the upper deck supported by one pillar in the middle of the river. In the middle of the bridge, both side bridge decks are raised and connected in a symbolic arch above the road decorated with two decorative turrets. The total length of the bridge is almost 100 meters. In 2003, the entire bridge underwent reconstruction.
