Puente Saavedra, Highway bridge in Vicente López, Argentina.

Puente Saavedra is a road bridge connecting Buenos Aires with Vicente López district and serves as a major traffic corridor for the region. The structure includes multiple lanes for vehicles along with pedestrian pathways, serving both private and public transportation needs.

At the start of the 20th century, the name Puente Saavedra referred to a bridge 200 metres north of today's, where Maipú Avenue crossed the Central Córdoba Railway. In 1954 the bridge was widened to eight lanes and commercial galleries were built over its side pavements, burying the old tunnel. In 1996 Autopistas del Sol S.A. enlarged the current General Paz Avenue overpass.

Artist Martín Ron created a large-scale mural on the concrete underside of the bridge in 2017, bringing color to what was once a gray space. The artwork is visible to anyone passing through and has become part of how locals see the area.

The bridge has separate sections for motor vehicles, the express bus transit system, and pedestrians, allowing safe passage for different types of users. Keep in mind that traffic congestion is heaviest during morning and late afternoon rush hours.

The 1954 widening buried the old tunnel under new buildings, so the underpass that once crossed beneath the bridge is no longer visible to traffic. The commercial galleries built on the side walkways then gave the name Puente Saavedra to the highway bridge near the Saavedra neighbourhood.
