Puente colgante de Santa Fe, Steel cable-stayed bridge in Santa Fe, Argentina.
Description
Puente colgante de Santa Fe is a steel cable-stayed bridge spanning Setubal Lagoon to connect the eastern and western shores. The structure features two 26-meter-tall towers and a 10-meter-wide deck accommodating both vehicles and pedestrians.
History
The bridge first opened in 1928 as a symbol of Santa Fe's progress. A devastating flood in 1983 destroyed the original structure, but extensive reconstruction work brought it back to service in 2002.
Culture
The bridge serves as a powerful symbol connecting the city's different neighborhoods and has shaped daily life for generations. Residents use it regularly for their commutes and as a place to enjoy views across the water.
Practical
It is best to explore the bridge during daylight to fully see its structure and surroundings. At night, LED lighting systems illuminate the bridge, creating a different experience than daytime visits.
Did you know?
The bridge features an advanced LED lighting system capable of producing over 1.6 million color combinations, transforming nighttime into a spectacular sight. This colorful illumination makes it a popular destination for photographers and evening visitors.
