KOMAROVSKY BRIDGE (also Gorbaty - humpbacked), over the Bolshaya Okhta River, on Yakornaya (former Komarovskaya, hence the name) Street, links the Bolshaya and Malaya Okhta Rivers. From the 18th century there has been a timber bridge here. In 1911 and 1943 steel beams were laid over the wooden piers. The present bridge was built in 1960 (engineers V.V. Zaytsev, B.B. Levin, architect L.А. Noskov). The reinforced-concrete frame deck and the piers are faced with granite. Length: 72.7 metres, width: 47 metres.
