Kamome Ohashi

The Kamome Ohashi stretches across 442 meters, featuring a main span of 240 meters and a width of 20.5 meters, supported by reinforced concrete construction.

The bridge opened in 1976 and received recognition through the Japan Society of Civil Engineers Tanaka Prize that same year for its engineering excellence.

The structure demonstrates Japanese engineering capabilities through its precise construction methods and incorporation of modern architectural principles in urban development.

The bridge serves as a primary transportation route in Osaka, connecting different sections of Suminoe-ku and supporting daily traffic flow across the region.

The bridge's design incorporates cables extending directly from the deck to towers, representing advanced engineering techniques of the mid-1970s Japanese construction industry.
