Bosch Bridge, Iron bridge in Barracas neighborhood, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The Bosch Bridge extends across the Matanza River, connecting Algarrobo Street in Barracas with Barrio Piñeyro of Avellaneda Partido.

Inaugurated on July 30, 1908, the bridge stands parallel to the General Roca Railway tracks between Hipólito Yrigoyen and Darío Santillán y Maximiliano Kosteki stations.

The 1930 tramway accident at Bosch Bridge became part of local literature through its portrayal in the comic strip Sherlock Time by Héctor Oesterheld.

Following renovations in 2008 costing 3.2 million Argentine pesos, the bridge now operates with specific height and weight restrictions for vehicles.

A 2015 proposal suggested transforming the structure into Puente de las Mariposas, linking the Design Metropolitan Center with the Faculty of Environmental Sciences.
