The Žďákovský Most is the Czech Republic’s highest bridge, crossing a deep reservoir in the South Bohemia region. The 42 mile (68 km) long lake was created by the Orlík Dam, the largest hydroelectric dam in the country. The 1,083 foot (330 mtr) steel arch was one of the longest spans of its type in the world upon its completion in 1965. The tall spandrel supports are unusually slender. Half the height of the bridge is hidden under 187 feet (57 mtrs) of reservoir water.
The Žďákovský Bridge was reconstructed between 2015 and 2017. The main objective of the reconstruction was to replace the bridge closures, restore the waterproof insulation of the bridge deck, replace the cornice beams and railings, restore the anti-corrosion protection of the steel structure and renovate the concrete parts of the bridge.
