Answer
The bridge constructed by Matviyenko in Saint Petersburg is a non-drawbridge, meaning it cannot be raised or opened to allow ships to pass through. This type of bridge is commonly used in urban areas where there is limited space or where the bridge spans a body of water that does not require regular maritime traffic. Non-drawbridges offer several advantages, including reduced maintenance costs, improved safety, and enhanced traffic flow.
