猪飼野新橋, Girder bridge in Ikuno-ku, Japan
Description
Ikaino New Bridge is a girder structure spanning the Hirano River with a concrete deck measuring 12 meters across. The 18.5-meter-long crossing serves both vehicle traffic and foot traffic across the waterway.
History
Built in 1987, the bridge replaced an older crossing that originated during the Taisho period when farmland developed in the area. This newer construction improved connections across the river for the growing neighborhood.
Culture
The railings display decorative patterns inspired by ancient Japanese tomb shapes and comma motifs that reflect the area's deep cultural roots. These ornamental details give the bridge a connection to local identity beyond its practical function.
Practical
The crossing is located roughly 950 meters from Imazato Station on the OsakaMetro Imazato Line. The walk from the station is straightforward across the residential neighborhood to reach the bridge.
Did you know?
The railings bear a 14-character inscription that references the Ikaino area's mention in the Nihon Shoki, Japan's oldest historical record. This ancient text connects the modern structure to a distant past.
