祭畤大橋, Collapsed bridge memorial in Ichinoseki, Japan
The Matsurubeohashi Bridge spans across the Onikoshizawa Valley, a tributary of the Iwai River, with its twisted steel structure now serving as a disaster monument.
Built in 1978 with a length of 94 meters and width of 9 meters, the original steel girder bridge collapsed during the 2008 Iwate-Miyagi Inland Earthquake.
The bridge remains stand as a preserved disaster heritage site, educating visitors about natural disasters and engineering through the Matsurubeohashi Disaster Observation Hill.
Visitors can reach the site by taking a bus from Ichinoseki Station, with a journey time of 60 minutes to Buna no Mori Matsurubekan Station.
The bridge failure occurred due to an 11-meter landslide movement in the pier foundation, despite meeting earthquake resistance design standards.
