The bridge was constructed as part of Tokyo's transportation expansion in the mid-20th century. It played a key role in connecting Tokyo and Yokohama for modern commuter rail services.
The bridge represents Japanese engineering precision, incorporating structural elements that maintain efficient rail operations while respecting local architectural traditions.
The viaduct sits along a heavily used rail corridor, so train traffic and operations are constant throughout the day. Visitors can best view the structure from nearby surrounding areas or vantage points near the tracks.
The bridge structure features specific engineering elements designed to handle the frequent passage of both 7000 series Tokyu trains and standard commercial rail vehicles.
