阿賀浦橋

The Agauura Bridge spans 306.9 meters across the Agano River, featuring stone arch elements and a width of 22 meters for vehicle traffic.

Constructed in 1929 during the modernization period of Niigata Prefecture, the bridge represents a significant advancement in Japanese civil engineering techniques.

The bridge received designation as an Important Cultural Property in 2004, becoming the second bridge on a national highway to receive this recognition.

Located within a 15-minute walk from Niigata Station, the bridge includes separate lanes for vehicles and broad walkways for pedestrians crossing the river.

The structure demonstrated exceptional engineering quality by remaining intact during the intense 1964 Niigata Earthquake, proving its structural durability.
