Magok Bridge

Magok Bridge is a railway bridge crossing the Han River in Seoul that carries AREX trains. It stretches about 2,400 meters (7,900 feet) with a steel construction featuring three main spans that bridge the river's width.

Construction of the bridge began in 2004 and finished in 2010, marking an important step in developing South Korea's railway infrastructure. The completed structure made it possible for the first time to have direct rail connections between the airport and central Seoul.

The bridge serves as a vital link in the AREX system, connecting the airport to the city and showing how important fast rail connections have become to residents and travelers. It demonstrates South Korea's commitment to modern transportation that moves millions of people efficiently.

The bridge is best experienced from the AREX trains that travel across it, carrying passengers from central Seoul to the airport. There are no walking paths to cross the bridge, so riding as a train passenger offers the best way to view it.

The bridge was designed to carry two railway tracks side by side while withstanding the Han River's strong current. This dual-track design allows trains to run in both directions at the same time, which is a critical part of the airport's busy transportation network.
