Aburajima Bridge, Transportation bridge in Japan.

The Aburajima Bridge extends for 1.7 kilometers across Lake Nakaumi, connecting Tottori Prefecture with Shimane Prefecture through a metal structure.

The construction of Aburajima Bridge commenced in 1997 and reached completion in 2004, replacing an older drawbridge that limited daily crossings to 4000 vehicles.

The bridge design incorporates elements of Japanese engineering principles, reflecting the nation's approach to infrastructure development and transportation solutions.

Travelers can access the bridge via train connections or by car, with designated viewing spots near the Shimane intersection for photography opportunities.

The bridge structure presents different gradients on each side, with a 6.1 percent slope from Shimane and a 5.1 percent incline from Tottori.
