Ichikawa Bridge, Road bridge between Edogawa-ku and Ichikawa, Japan
Ichikawa Bridge crosses the Edo River to connect Edogawa-ku in Tokyo with the city of Ichikawa in Chiba Prefecture. It carries Japan National Route 14 along with several prefectural and metropolitan roads that handle thousands of vehicles every day.
Construction of Ichikawa Bridge began during regional development efforts to meet growing demand for direct transportation between Tokyo and Chiba. The completion of the bridge took place over several years as part of a larger infrastructure expansion program in the area.
The bridge represents the interconnectedness of Tokyo and Chiba communities, facilitating daily exchanges between residents of both prefectures.
The bridge is part of the main road system and experiences heavy vehicle traffic during peak hours, so delays are common. Pedestrians and cyclists should use the sidewalks and watch for active traffic flow.
Located at coordinates 35.734194 latitude and 139.8995 longitude, the bridge spans the Edo River between two distinct administrative regions of Japan.
