[rosemary sea] January 28, 2019 12:00

It's upmary sea. After over 300 articles, I will write an article with a different taste for the first time.

Shinbabashi (Shinbabashi)

The bridge over the Metropolitan Expressway, which connects Nihonbashi 2-chome on the east and west of Showa-dori, and the southeast to Sakamoto Elementary School in Nihonbashikabutocho (currently under renovation).

The capital city was originally a rugged river called Momijigawa. It is the capital city height that has been reclaimed.

Shinbabashi is a bridge between Chiyodabashi and Kuyasubashi.

However, since the adjacent Chiyodabashi is a bridge under the capital height, the Shinbabashi Bridge is the last bridge that goes out above ground and the first bridge that goes underground, such a stance.

Currently, this Shinba Bridge is still closed to vehicles.

A part of a car that passed through the Metropolitan Expressway last summer and a part of the car that violated the height limit hit this Shinba Bridge, damaging the bridge girder.

It's been closed since then.

 Pedestrians and bicycles can pass through.

In the restoration work plan, inspection, investigation, and new design are completed, and construction is started.

It seems that there is a delay, but I think the construction period will be announced soon.

I am very concerned about this bridge, which is close to Rosmari's workplace.
