Modoș Bridge (Romanian: Podul Modoș) is located in the western Romanian city of Timișoara. It spans the Bega River at the western edge of the southern Iosefin district and extends into the Solventul Industrial Zone. It is 35 meters long, 11 meters wide, and has two tracks.
The iron-framed bridge was named after the line leading to the village of Modoș (now Jaša Tomić), as it was originally built for this purpose.
