Tokyo, Japan's Bridges: Kiyosuna Ohashi across the Arakawa (1)

March 2012 (35.665 Degrees, 139.846 Degrees) Kiyosuna Bridge

A pretty cable-stayed bridge, despite having mismatched towers and piers. Perhaps it's pretty because it's big and new (built in 2004). It has a fan arrangement of cables, a steel superstructure, and a concrete substructure. Also a 83 ft wide deck (there's extra room for the row of cables running down the center of the deck).

Its a 4322 ft long three span cable-stayed bridge with steel girder approach spans. Apparently Kiyosuna means a bridge close to the river's mouth. The bridge carries Route 10 between Tokyo and Chiba.
