Oshikiri Bridge, Road bridge in Kumagaya, Japan

The Oshikiri Bridge extends across the Arakawa River, connecting the Oaso and Oshikiri districts with a length of 1,339.13 meters and a width of 11.5 meters.

Built in 1991 as a permanent structure, the bridge replaced previous wooden bridges that had repeatedly been damaged by floods since the first installation in 1919.

The bridge area features parks and golf courses, while the surrounding Konan region contains ancient burial mounds and the Raijin Shrine.

The structure includes a 8-meter wide roadway and 2.5-meter wide pedestrian paths, forming part of Saitama Prefectural Road 47 between Fukaya and Higashimatsuyama.

The Oshikiri Bridge stands as the longest road bridge managed by Saitama Prefecture, with its 16 continuous prestressed concrete box girder spans.
