多摩橋

The Tama Bridge spans 202 meters in length and features a width of 11.5 meters, connecting the municipalities of Fussa and Akiruno over the Tama River.

In 1760, the Tama crossing point started as a ferry service managed by Kumagawa Village before evolving into a wooden structure and later a concrete bridge in 1925.

The bridge forms part of the Gokaichi Highway, serving as a central connection point for local communities and supporting daily transportation between different districts.

The structure includes two traffic lanes and pedestrian walkways, providing essential access for vehicles and pedestrians between the eastern and western banks of the Tama River.

The 1951 floods partially destroyed the bridge pillars due to military excavation activities, leading to community-funded repairs that demonstrated local solidarity.
