Aoto Bridge, Road bridge in Katsushika, Tokyo, Japan
Aoto Bridge is a road bridge crossing the Naka River in Tokyo, connecting the neighborhoods of Aoto and Takasago within the Katsushika district. The structure carries daily vehicle and pedestrian traffic over the water as part of Tokyo Metropolitan Road Route 318.
The bridge was built to connect the growing Katsushika district during Tokyo's urban expansion in the modern era. It became an important part of the local infrastructure network that supported the area's development.
The name of the bridge incorporates traditional Japanese characters, with 青砥橋 representing both the location and structural significance in the area.
The bridge is easiest to visit on foot or by bicycle as it is part of the local transport network. The best time to cross is outside rush hours when the pathways are less crowded.
The bridge position between Takasago Bridge downstream and Okudo Bridge upstream creates a strategic point for observing river traffic patterns.
