Between 1911 and 1913, a new steel bridge was built on the site of a wooden structure dating back to 1860. This three-span truss bridge over the Eastern Oder River was 250 meters long and 10 meters wide. It survived in this condition until World War II. At the end of the war in 1945, the central section of the bridge over the Eastern Oder River was blown up, blocking traffic on Międzyodrze. The bridge was rebuilt in 1955. At the turn of 2006 and 2007, the bridge underwent a major renovation, receiving a new asphalt surface and a new color for the truss. The three-span truss bridge has three spans. The spans are supported by concrete piers. The drawbridge is located in the middle of the central span.
