Iwakurojima Viaduct, Double-decked bridge in Sakaide, Japan

The Iwakurojima Viaduct combines road and rail transportation across multiple levels, connecting several islands in the Seto Inland Sea transportation network.

The construction of the Iwakurojima Viaduct, completed in 1988, marked a transformation from ferry-dependent travel to modern bridge transportation in the region.

The bridge structure near Shiromine and Tenno temples provides access for pilgrims following the traditional 88-temple route through Shikoku.

Travelers can reach the viaduct by taking a JR train to Kojima Station from Okayama, followed by local transportation to the observation points.

The engineering design incorporates two separate levels for vehicles and trains, making it part of the longest two-tiered bridge system worldwide.
