John Paul II Bridge (Gdańsk)

The John Paul II Bridge (Polish: Most im. Jana Pawła II), also known as the Third Millennium John Paul II Bridge (Polish: Most III Tysiąclecia im. Jana Pawła II), and as the Third Millennium Bridge (Polish: Most Trzeciego Tysiąclecia), is a cable-stayed road bridge which spans the Martwa Wisła River in Gdańsk, Poland.

The bridge forms an inverted “Y”-shape with a 100-metre-tall pylon. Until Rędziński Bridge was opened on the 31 August 2011, it used to be the longest cable-stayed bridge in Poland supported by a single pylon.

The bridge links the Northern Port of Gdańsk with the national road network and is the first section of the future by-pass road of the city of Gdańsk.
