Tito's bridge, at the time an unique engineering solution to Krk's
increasing demand for road access, was officially opened in 1980. Constructed
in two reinforced concrete arches the bridge has a length of 1430 m,
incorporating twenty pipelines carrying water and oil. The longer span
links the mainland with the miniature islet of St Marko, an almost inaccessible,
barren, rocky outcrop without water, sparse vegetation and steep cliffs,
whilst the shorter one completes the access to Island
Krk
