Sumida River Terrace _Sumida River Ohashi

[Slow of Satsuki's Koi] January 21, 2019 17:00

The Sumida River Ohashi is the only two-tiered bridge that spans the Sumida River. The upper part is the Metropolitan Expressway, and the lower part is a functional bridge with general roads and sidewalks. I have been asked for the Chuo-ku Tourism Test.

My personal impression is that the whole view of the bridge is not very distinctive, but from this bridge you can see the contrasting bridges of both Eitai Bridge and Kiyosu Bridge.

Looking at the structural point, it is supported separately from the part that supports the lower bridge girder and the upper part.

Looking at the upper section of the capital highway Hakozaki direction, not only the two steps but also another further above, and the Hakozaki Junction looks like a maze.

As you can see not only on the bridge but also on the bottom, there are facilities that support social infrastructure.
