Tokyo, Japan's Bridges: Funabori Bridge across the Arakawa

March 2012 (35.690 Degrees, 139.855 Degrees) Funabori Bridge
The next bridge downstream is the Funabori that carries Route 50 across the Arakawa. It's a mile long steel box girder bridge on hammerhead piers that was built in 1971.  Note the big tower on the far side that carries transmission lines over the river. I believe that the power lines go underground after crossing the river.
