日見夢大橋

The Himiyume Bridge is a highway bridge in Nagasaki that spans across the city and carries traffic on the Kyushu Expressway. The structure uses an innovative steel web design that reduces weight while maintaining high strength.

The bridge was completed in 2004 and marked the first application of a corrugated steel web design in global infrastructure. This construction project set new standards for modern bridge engineering in Japan.

The Himiyume Bridge received the 2004 Japan Society of Civil Engineers Tanaka Award for its structural innovation and engineering excellence.

The bridge can be traveled by passengers on the Kyushu Expressway and is accessible year-round. It is best visited during daylight hours to see the structural details more clearly.

The bridge uses a corrugated steel web structure, a technical feature rarely seen in bridge construction. This design allows weight to be reduced without sacrificing stability.
