新相模大橋, Road bridge in Ebina, Japan
Shin-Sagami Bridge is a road crossing over the Sagami River that joins Ebina and Atsugi via National Route 246 Yamato-Atsugi Bypass. The structure has four traffic lanes in total, with two in each direction to handle traffic between the two cities.
The bridge was built as part of the Yamato-Atsugi Bypass development, marking an important step in connecting the two cities more efficiently. Its construction reflected the region's growth and the need for better road infrastructure.
The riverbank on the Ebina side is a popular spot for locals enjoying outdoor activities and gatherings by the water. The bridge marks a place where the river becomes part of everyday recreation rather than just a geographical boundary.
The bridge is easily accessible via National Route 246 and offers parking areas on both sides of the river for visitors exploring the region. Morning or early afternoon visits tend to be quieter than peak evening traffic times.
The bridge serves as a connection point to the Metropolitan Inter-City Expressway on the Atsugi side, making it a key link in the broader Tokyo area traffic network. This linkage created a shortcut for travelers heading toward the metropolis.
