新荒川大橋, Road bridge across Arakawa River in Tokyo, Japan

The Shin-Arakawa Bridge spans 673 meters across the Arakawa River, connecting Kawaguchi City in Saitama Prefecture with Kita Ward in Tokyo.

The first bridge, completed in 1928, replaced a ferry service and became the longest bridge in Tokyo at the time of its construction.

The bridge marks the point where the Arakawa River splits into the Sumida River, forming a crucial waterway intersection in northern Tokyo.

The structure serves as National Route 122 and functions as an emergency transportation route during disasters for both Tokyo and Saitama Prefecture.

The current bridge consists of two parallel structures completed in 1966 and 1970, with the tsunami from the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake passing beneath it.
