Río Cruces Bridge, Triangular bridge in Valdivia, Chile
The Rio Cruces Bridge extends 455 meters across the Cruces River, connecting Isla Teja to the suburban area of Torobayo in Valdivia.
The construction of the bridge began in December 1984 and was completed in February 1987, with a total cost of 368 million Chilean pesos.
The bridge replaced the traditional ferry service between La Mulatas and Torobayo, transforming the daily routines of local residents and their connection to coastal communities.
The structure includes two pedestrian walkways of 1.20 meters each and an 8-meter wide roadway that accommodates two-way vehicle traffic.
The bridge rises to a height of 28.6 meters at its highest point and combines reinforced concrete and steel in its mixed structural design.
