The Bugrinsky Bridge ({{langx|ru|Бугри́нский мост}}, Bugrinsky Most) is a road bridge over the Ob River in Novosibirsk, Russia. It is the third automobile bridge over the Ob River in the city of Novosibirsk.

Name

The former name "Olovozavodskoy" bridge was later changed to Bugrinsky because it crosses the Bugrinskaya grove on the left bank of the Ob, which is located next to one of the world's largest tin factories. Former city Mayor Vladimir Gorodetsky noted that the name "Olovozavodskoy" is two decades old and already outdated. On December, 3rd 2013 a commission decided unanimously to name the third bridge over the Ob River in Novosibirsk as "Bugrinsky".
