Niigata Japan's Bridges: Utility Bridges across the U River (1)

August 2007 (37.360 Degrees, 138.550 Degrees) Utility Bridges

We are slowly traveling out of the city and into the countryside. In the photo above I'm standing on the Highway 8 bridge looking upstream at the U River, two utility bridges, and at distant mountains. Both bridges are composed of Warren trusses that are firmly anchored to abutments and a hammerhead bent.
