Puente Chirre, National heritage bridge in Río Bueno, Chile
The concrete bridge spans 114 meters in length, reaches 108 meters in height, and features six supporting pillars spaced 8.3 meters apart.
Built between 1940 and 1945 for the Ramal Cocule-Lago Ranco railway line, the structure withstood the 1960 earthquake due to superior construction methods.
The bridge represents a milestone in Chilean engineering, standing as one of the first lower arch reinforced concrete bridges constructed in the early 20th century.
Located one hour from Río Bueno center, visitors can reach the bridge by following route T-933 to Crucero village and continuing on route T-941 toward Lago Puyehue.
The structure includes a single reinforced concrete slab arch measuring 2 meters thick with a 66.7-meter span, incorporating lateral extensions for seismic protection.
