The famous St. Petersburg "bridge of stupidity" will disappear forever

In St. Petersburg is full of sights, both historical and modern. The famous "bridge of stupidity" — one of which appeared in our days monuments of human negligence and stupidity. Underneath permanently stuck trucks with high booths, which drivers don't look at the signs, or hope to "slip".

"Bridge of folly" is a poetic common name. In fact, this structure is called quite boring — "Bridge No. 1 through the left tributary of the river Kuzminki". It was built in 2009, and in operation it was introduced five years later in 2014.

Miracles of stupidity motorists started to show under the bridge almost from the first days of its appearance, and in 2018, in the city Day may 27 at his designs and doesn't fit the "jubilee" 150 "GAZelle".

The event caused the city such resonance that city officials decided to protect the stupid drivers from the iconic bridge. Near it installed additional warning signs, and spans hung indicate danger beams on the chains. Accidents have become much smaller, but they still have not stopped.

15 January 2021 "bridge of stupidity" celebrated another dubious achievement — 200 on account of the car, the traditional "GAZelle", stuck under his hospitable flight. Obviously, this event has exhausted the last drop of patience local managers and the bridge it was decided to reconstruct.

Officially declared that the movement under the bridge will be closed from 13 March to 15 may, because of repairs. The first plans to restore the badly battered by blows on the high box beam span structure, and then perform a major overhaul of the street, after which the envelope under the bridge will reach 4.5 meters.

So, we can say that the "bridge of stupidity" ceased to exist, and with a clear conscience moved into the category of urban legends.
