Yekaterinburg unveils a pedestrian bridge and entertainment hub for its people
Yekaterinburg is moving forward with two major urban projects: a new pedestrian bridge and the Badenland entertainment complex. The bridge, set to begin construction in 2026 or 2027, will cross the Iset River, while the first phase of the Badenland complex has already opened in the Komsomol shopping centre.
The city administration announced a tender for the design and construction of the pedestrian bridge in 2025. Baden-Baden will lead the project, with plans to complete it by the end of the year before handing it over to local authorities. Once built, the bridge will provide residents with a car-free route to key destinations.
The Badenland entertainment complex is also taking shape. Its first phase has launched inside the Komsomol shopping centre, which will now focus solely on entertainment and wellness services. The full complex is expected to finish by 2027, though the timeline depends on securing the necessary funding. City hall aims to include the bridge in a federal programme to help fund its construction. Meanwhile, the Badenland project continues its phased rollout, transforming the Komsomol site into a dedicated leisure hub.
The pedestrian bridge will improve walkability in Yekaterinburg, while the Badenland complex will expand entertainment options for the people. Both projects mark significant steps in the city’s development, with completion dates tied to funding and construction progress.
