Colombo Salles Bridge, Bridge in Florianópolis, Brazil
The Colombo Salles Bridge stretches 1227 meters across the water, connecting Santa Catarina Island to mainland Florianópolis through four continental-bound lanes.
Completed in 1975 under Governor Colombo Salles administration, the bridge construction required four years of work and an investment of 150 million cruzeiros.
The inauguration ceremony in March 1975 gathered thousands of residents, with Mrs. Dayse Salles cutting the ribbon before crossing the bridge in a Volkswagen Brasilia.
The structure handles 120,000 vehicles daily, making it essential to plan crossings outside peak hours between 5:00 PM and 7:00 PM to avoid traffic congestion.
The bridge features pedestrian paths on both sides, offering views of Hercilio Luz Bridge and the bay, particularly during sunrise and sunset hours.
