"The bigest a longer bridge between the existing two in Szeged above the Tisza river. Has two line for each direction. Connecting between the old city and the relativly new side of the city. Since the opening of the ring road M43 more then 10 years ago most of the TIR trucks are forbidden to cros Szeged. It made the trafic on this bridge much less active but, still it is a bussy bridge esspesialy in the rush hours. Be carefull - there are permanent trafic cameras on the bridge which are working ALL The Time! Drive safely."
