Pont de Camas, Road bridge in Seville, Spain.
The Puente de Camas is a road bridge crossing the Guadalquivir River in Seville with dedicated lanes for vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles. Its layout allows different types of traffic to move alongside each other while connecting several neighborhoods across the river.
The bridge opened in 1981 to improve connections in northwestern Seville as the city expanded into that area. It was built to address transportation needs as neighborhoods on both sides of the river grew.
The bridge serves as a daily passage for residents and workers moving between the western neighborhoods of Seville. It has become woven into the local rhythm of commuting and getting around the city.
The bridge is easy to walk across with wide pedestrian paths on both sides. It is less congested in the early morning and late afternoon, making those times more pleasant for crossing on foot.
The Guadalquivir below changes water levels significantly with the seasons, and the bridge was specifically engineered to handle these variations. It remains steady during floods while also managing the river's low-water periods without disruption.
