Puente Llacolén, Road bridge in San Pedro de la Paz and Concepción, Chile

The Llacolén Bridge extends 2,157 meters across the Biobío River with four vehicle lanes and a pedestrian walkway measuring 3 meters wide.

Following the 2010 earthquake that damaged part of its roadway, this bridge remained the sole connection between Concepción and communities south of the Biobío River.

The bridge name refers to a Mapuche toqui and his daughter, connected to the legend of the Small Lake of San Pedro near its southern access.

The structure includes dedicated lanes for vehicles in both directions, plus a combined pedestrian and bicycle path equipped with resting benches.

Large representative statues stand at both ends of the bridge, greeting travelers heading toward each municipality of San Pedro de la Paz and Concepción.
