Rokugo Bridge, Road bridge in Kawasaki, Japan

The Rokugo Bridge spans 443.7 meters across the Tama River, connecting Ota Ward in Tokyo with Kawasaki City in Kanagawa Prefecture.

The first wooden bridge at this location was constructed in 1600 under Tokugawa Ieyasu's orders to establish a crossing point on the Tokaido Road.

The bridge serves as a significant checkpoint during the annual Tokyo-Hakone Round-Trip College Ekiden Race, marking the boundary between Tokyo and Kanagawa jurisdictions.

The current steel structure features three traffic lanes in each direction and pedestrian walkways, supporting the National Route 15 transportation network.

A memorial plaque in Miyamoto-dai Green Space commemorates 18 workers affected during the 1984 bridge demolition accident.
