The first road bridge has been opened on the border between the Russian Federation and the DPRK. 

The construction of the 1-kilometer-long bridge, spanning the Tuman River, began in April 2025 after the signing of an intergovernmental agreement. It was named after Yakov Novichenko, a Red Army officer and a Hero of Labor of the DPRK.

Prior to this, the Russian Federation and the DPRK were only connected by the Friendship Bridge, a railway bridge built in 1959.
