Laguna Garzón Bridge, Circular bridge in Rocha Department, Uruguay.
The Laguna Garzón Bridge spans across the lagoon with two semicircular lanes, connecting the Maldonado and Rocha departments in southeastern Uruguay.
The bridge, completed in December 2015, replaced a small ferry service that had operated since 1995 and required specific daylight and weather conditions.
Uruguayan architect Rafael Viñoly designed this structure to integrate with the Bañados del Este Biosphere Reserve and the Lagoons National Park.
The bridge accommodates 1000 vehicles daily and includes dedicated spaces for pedestrians and cyclists, with parking areas at both ends.
The structure incorporates 450 tons of steel and 500 cubic meters of concrete to form its circular shape that naturally reduces vehicle speed.
