Pont de Fusta

Pont de Fusta is a wooden bridge that crosses a section of the Turia River in Valencia, connecting different parts of the city. The structure features slender wooden elements with contemporary design and was completed around 2012.

The bridge was built in the early 2010s as part of transforming the Turia riverbed into a public park system. It continues Valencia's heritage of wooden structures while demonstrating modern construction techniques.

The bridge takes its name from the local Valencian word for wooden structure and serves residents as a meeting point in their daily routines. People pause here to rest, cross the waterway, and connect with nature within the urban landscape.

The bridge is easy to access from multiple directions and works well for walkers and cyclists. The best approach is through the Turia Park, which has well-maintained paths leading to and across the river area.

The timber used in the bridge undergoes special treatment to withstand weather and water exposure, requiring regular inspections. These maintenance practices make it a notable example of modern timber engineering in urban bridges.
