Puente ferroviario Biobío, Railway bridge across Bío Bío River in Concepción, Chile
The steel bridge stretches for 1,886 meters across the Bío Bío River, connecting the cities of Concepción and San Pedro de la Paz.
Built in 1889 by The Arauco Company Limited, the bridge established a connection between Concepción and the coal mines in Lota and Coronel port.
The bridge represents a key element in the development of Chile's railway system, enabling the transportation of goods and passengers between major urban centers.
The bridge serves as part of Line 2 of the Biotren system, providing an essential link for daily commuters between the two municipalities.
The structure includes 62 metal sections supported by multiple pillars, preceded by a 225-meter tunnel that runs beneath Cerro Chepe.
