Construction

Engineer P. A. Avenarius constructed the crossover in 1894. It was a 200-metre (660 ft) pile bridge which paralleled the Lakhtinsky dam on which there was a road.^[1] Near to the bridge, Shunting loop Dum and Shunting loop 2 verst were constructed. The bridge opened July 12, 1894.^[1]

Destruction and rebuilding

Catastrophic flooding on September 23, 1924 completely destroyed the bridge. It was restored in 1925 at its current location.^[1]

Current structure

As of 2009, the bridge is a metal one-span girder bridge, constructed from box-shaped beams on stone foundations.
