Temporary structures were built almost 80 years ago, most of the work was done manually during frost. In the last century, these bridges were trains, but after 9 years of operation they were dismantled. As a result of a decrease in the water level in the Dnieper, through the undergraded Russian troops of the Kakhovsky Hydroelectric power plant in the Kherson region, it is possible to see the remains of temporary bridges for the first time in almost 70 years.

These wooden structures were built in 1944 and were underwater for a long time. They were told about the social networks of the National Reserve "Khortytsa" on June 10. "After fierce battles in Zaporozhye in October-December 1943, DniproGes Dremts, as well as the steel bridges of Streletsky, were destroyed. To continue the Red Army's offensive on the right bank, a decision was made to build temporary railway bridges across the Dnieper, which would lie southern Khortya. , - explained in the reserve.

The post says that most of the earthworks for the construction of bridges were done manually during winter frosts. In Khortytsia, the most difficult task of construction of those times was called the establishment of a 30-meter run structure over the navigable part of the Dnieper. The publication emphasized that its weight was 60 tons. "Despite all the difficulties of February 20 (ie 48 days), a passage on the bridge from the central part of the city to Khortytsia was opened.

Three days, when the bridge was completed through the Old Dnieper, trains opened throughout the branch of 11 kilometers in length up to 30 km long /h, "the reserve was transferred. In Khortytsia, it was recalled that the branch began near the Zaporozhye I, crossed the Dnieper, came to the dam in the smooth part of Khortytsia and connected with the railway line near the destroyed Bridge of Streletsky through the old Dnieper. "Temporary bridges existed for 9 years.

During this time it was possible to restore Dniproges, to build the Bridges of Transfiguration, which was opened on December 30, 1952. Only after that the temporary bridges were dismantled. But in the memoirs of old -timers, " - stated in the post. We will remind, in the media with reference to experts warned that as a result of destruction by the occupiers of the dams of Kakhovka hydroelectric power hydroelectric power station, Ukrainians will remain without Kherson watermelons and tomatoes.
