The Island Bridge (Latvian: Salu tilts) is a bridge that crosses the Daugava river in Riga, the capital of Latvia. The bridge was built in the period from 1975 to 1977.[2] It was called the Moscow Bridge (Maskavas tilts) until 1991.[1] The bridge provides access to Zaķusala (Hare Island) and Lucavsala.

On June 26, 2018, second phase of the bridge's reconstruction costing 19.6 million euros was initiated.[3]
