Shin Juso Ohashi Bridge, Steel bridge between Kita-ku and Yodogawa-ku districts, Japan
Shin Juso Ohashi Bridge is a steel crossing over the Yodo River that serves both vehicle and pedestrian traffic between two northern Osaka districts. The structure spans the river as part of Route 176, allowing continuous traffic flow across this important waterway.
The bridge opened in 1966 as a key infrastructure project for northern Osaka. This crossing significantly improved transportation connections between the districts at a time of rapid urban growth.
The bridge name, written as 新十三大橋 in Japanese characters, represents the connection between two major districts of Osaka prefecture.
The bridge is easy to access and clearly marked as part of Route 176, making it simple to find and cross. During peak hours traffic can be heavy, so plan accordingly if you need to cross on foot.
The bridge features a large central opening that allows ships to pass underneath it. This design reflects how planning had to accommodate two types of traffic - road vehicles above and river navigation below.
