The Godavari Bridge or Kovvur–Rajahmundry Bridge is truss bridge spanning Godavari River in Rajahmundry, India. It is Asia's third longest road-cum-rail bridge crossing a water body, after the Digha–Sonpur rail–road bridge in Patna, Bihar, India and Sky Gate Bridge R in Kansai International Airport, Osaka. It is second of the three bridges that span the Godavari River at Rajahmundry. The Havelock Bridge being the earliest, was built in 1897, and having served its full utility, was decommissioned in 1997. The latest bridge is the Godavari Arch Bridge, a bowstring-girder bridge, built in 1997 and presently in service. The bridge is 4.1 kilometers long consisting of 27 spans of 91.5 m and 7 spans of 45.72 m of which 6 spans of 45.72m are in 6 deg. curve at long Rajahmundry end to make up for the built up area. The bridge has a road deck over the single track rail deck, similar to the Grafton Bridge in New South Wales, Australia. This bridge, in addition to Godavari Arch Bridge, has been widely used to represent Rajahmundry in arts, media, and culture. It is one of the recognised symbols of Rajahmundry.
