Puente Maurício Joppert, Bridge over Paraná River in São Paulo, Brazil

The Maurício Joppert Bridge stretches 2,550 meters across the Paraná River, connecting São Paulo state with Mato Grosso do Sul through Presidente Epitácio.

Built in prestressed concrete and completed in 1964, the bridge remained the longest in Brazil until the construction of the Rio-Niterói bridge.

In 2012, the bridge was renamed to Hélio Serejo Bridge to honor the writer who advocated for its construction through a dedicated campaign.

The structure carries both the BR-267 highway from Mato Grosso do Sul and connects to the Raposo Tavares highway on the São Paulo side.

A 10-kilometer embankment was constructed to elevate the road due to the water level rise from the Engenheiro Sérgio Motta hydroelectric plant reservoir.
