Editor's Note
The Kömürhan Bridge, also known as the İsmet Paşa Bridge, is a box-girder bridge carrying the Elazığ-Malatya highway over the Euphrates River in eastern Turkey, built using the balanced cantilever technique. It replaced a concrete arch bridge built by the Swedish company Nydqvist & Holm in 1932, which was flooded by the Karakaya Dam. An STFA-built bridge was constructed between 1983 and 1986, and a newer bridge opened at the same site on 2 January 2021.
