The Calafat-Vidin Bridge (Bulgarian: Мост Видин-Калафат, Most Vidin-Kalafat or Дунав мост 2, Dunav most 2; Romanian: Podul Vidin-Calafat) is a planned road and rail bridge between the cities of Calafat, Romania and Vidin, Bulgaria. It will be the second bridge on the shared section of the Danube between Romania and Bulgaria. The bridge is to be built by the Spanish company Fomento de Construcciones y Contratas, S.A., and the cost is projected to be $160 million.[3]

According to Romanian Minister of Transport, Constructions and Tourism Radu Berceanu, construction of the bridge is to begin in June 2006 and is planned to finish in 2010. According to Berceanu, most of the construction will be done by Bulgarian subcontractors.[4][5]

The bridge will be part of Pan-European corridor IV.[4][5]
