六十谷水管橋

The Mukou Water Bridge stretches 546.85 meters across the Kinokawa River, carrying water through large pipes supported by concrete pillars.

The infrastructure was constructed in March 1975 as part of Wakayama's water supply system to distribute water to northern areas of the city.

The bridge represents Japanese engineering capabilities in water management and distribution systems that serve local communities.

The structure functions as a vital water supply line for approximately 60,000 households in the northern districts of Wakayama City.

On October 3, 2021, a section of the bridge collapsed, leading to extensive water supply disruptions that required temporary distribution centers.
