About
The Old Sava Bridge (Serbian: Стари савски мост, romanized: Stari savski most) was a 430-metre-long (1,410 ft) and 40-metre-wide (130 ft) bridge, crossing the river Sava in Belgrade, Serbia. It was the smallest road bridge in the Serbian capital and was used both for car and tram traffic. The main span between the two pillars of this tied arch bridge was over 157 m (515 ft) in length. Two bus lines and three tram lines of Belgrade public transport used the bridge. Due to its history, the bridge had an important place and role in Belgrade's skyline and memory, and was considered by many citizens as one of the city symbols. However, in 2016, the city administration decided to demolish it and build a more modern bridge, to complement the Belgrade Waterfront project nearby. Both the experts and the public opposed these plans, forcing the city to reconsider them several times (suggested options included an expansion, an upgrade, a demolition, and a relocation). Many citizens voted online to relocate the bridge onto dry land within the Ušće Park and keep it there as a tourist attraction. Many others claimed this vote was not representative of what most citizens desired. After all consultations were completed, the bridge was finally demolished in May 2025.
