- Raudsild (Tartu)
Raudsild (iron bridge) is a
footbridge acrossEmajõgi inTartu ,Estonia . The bridge was opened in 3. June 1993 and demolished in 2007 to replace by a 3-lane traffic bridge (Vabaduse bridge, to be opened in late2008 ). The bridge will eventually be moved upward and re-opened for pedestrian traffic.The decision to demolish Raudsild is sometimes considered being controversial because of costs and worsening conditions for pedestrians in the Tartu downtown while not substantially improving the traffic conditions.
