Ponte della Becca, Iron bridge at Linarolo and Mezzanino, Italy
The Ponte della Becca spans 1081 meters across the confluence of the Ticino and Po rivers, connecting the municipalities of Linarolo and Mezzanino.
Built between 1910 and 1912, the bridge was partially destroyed during World War II bombings in 1944 and reconstructed by Società Nazionale Officine di Savigliano in 1950.
The bridge construction stemmed from the need to transport grapes from Oltrepò Pavese to Pavia and Lombardy, replacing an earlier system of ferries and boat bridges.
The structure carries the SS617 Bronese highway traffic between Broni and Pavia, serving as a primary transportation link for the surrounding communities.
A river tourism complex developed at the Pavia end of the bridge in the 1990s, though water activities remain limited due to frequent flooding.
