西5丁目跨線橋, Railway overpass bridge in Sapporo, Japan
The Nishi 5-chome overpass bridge connects the northern and southern parts of Sapporo city across the Hakodate Main Line railway tracks.
Built in 1932, this bridge resolved a long-standing traffic separation issue and underwent modifications in 1967 before its demolition in 1988.
The bridge served as a stage for traditional ceremonies between Hokkaido University and Otaru Higher Commercial School student groups before World War II.
Located near Sapporo Station, the bridge provided a crossing point for pedestrians and vehicles, connecting residential areas with commercial districts.
Local children turned the bridge into a recreational spot, testing how far their bicycles could coast down the slope without pedaling.
