The 288 metres bridge was completely restored with EU funding, receiving new handrails, lighting,
video observation and telecommunication connection with Lysychansk. The new bridge has
renewed traffic across Siversky Donets river, and created a safe crossing for citizens.
During the official opening Valentin Kazakov, the Severodonetsk city mayor emphasised: "I express
deep gratitude to the European Union for supporting this project which is very important for our
citizens. The EU grant made the restoration of road traffic across the river between two cities

comfortable; improve economic ties and functioning of the infrastructure in both cities”…(link)
