Hipólito Yrigoyen Bridge, National historical monument bridge in Necochea, Argentina.

The metallic structure spans 270 meters across the Quequén Grande River, featuring a central span of 150 meters and two lateral sections of 60 meters each.

Inaugurated on July 21, 1929, the bridge represented a major engineering achievement as only four similar structures existed worldwide at the time of its construction.

Named after President Hipólito Yrigoyen, the bridge stands as a symbol of Argentine infrastructure development and connects the communities of Necochea and Quequén.

The bridge includes a six-meter roadway and two one-meter sidewalks, with current access limited to cars, motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians.

The structure remains suspended by 32 cables, each containing 169 steel wires arranged in concentric layers, anchored to concrete blocks that support the bridge.
