Aoki Bridge, Railway bridge in Kinkōchō, Japan.
Aoki Bridge spans multiple railway tracks to connect different sections of Kinkōchō. It carries the Second Keihin National Highway and serves as a major transportation link in the area.
Built in 1870, the bridge emerged during Japan's rapid railway expansion as the nation established its first major transportation networks. It was constructed during a period of intensive modernization that reshaped the country's infrastructure.
The bridge is woven into daily life for people who cross it to move between neighborhoods as trains rumble beneath. It connects different parts of the community and shapes how residents navigate their area.
The bridge is accessible through local transit connections and maintenance work typically occurs during off-peak times. Visitors should plan around regular traffic patterns when walking through the area.
The structure crosses both the Tōkaidō Main Line and Keikyū Main Line at the same time. This overlap of two major railway routes creates a special technical point in the region's transportation landscape.
