Description:
Aksaisky Bridge is a road bridge across the Don River in Rostov-on-Don. Total length 580 m. In 1964, on 1062 km of the M4 Don highway, a two-lane bridge was built, designed to pass up to 7 thousand cars per day. In 1995, in addition to the old, a new three-lane crossing was built. At the same time, an interchange was made in the village of Olginskaya and on the Left Bank of the Don. The old bridge has been demolished and a new one is being built. Construction is expected to be completed in September 2014.
The bridge was named after the city of Aksai, near which it is located. The city of Aksai, in turn, was named after the Aksai River, the right tributary of the Don.
