福島大橋, Prefectural road bridge between Imari and Matsuura, Japan
The Fukushima Bridge is a concrete structure that spans across Tatsunose Strait, connecting Imari City in Saga Prefecture to Matsuura City in Nagasaki Prefecture. The roadway measures 6 meters wide and was built with reinforced concrete beams to handle daily traffic between the two areas.
Construction of this bridge began in 1964 and was completed in 1967, marking an important milestone for transportation connectivity in northern Kyushu. The completion created a direct road link between the two prefectures where no such crossing previously existed.
This bridge forms part of Nagasaki Prefectural Road Route 103, serving as the only road connection between Fukushima and mainland Kyushu.
The bridge is free to drive across and provides the most direct route between the two prefectures without detours. Those exploring the region should know that this is the main passage connecting Imari and Matsuura.
Located at coordinates 33.373139, 129.857583, the bridge provides essential connectivity for local fishing communities and agricultural transportation systems.
