The Triplets bridges, Stone bridge complex in northern La Paz, Bolivia.

Three consecutive extradosed bridges span across the Choqueyapu River, featuring a single central plane of stays and three-span deck construction.

The bridges, completed in 2010 after three years of construction, were developed by Pedelta Structural Engineers with a total investment of 18.3 million dollars.

The three bridges bear names that reflect national values: Independencia, Libertad, and Union, representing fundamental principles of Bolivian society.

Each bridge extends 14.8 meters in width and spans 113.5 meters, accommodating substantial vehicle traffic across the northern section of La Paz.

The project earned recognition at the International Bridge Conference, receiving the Eugene C. Figg, Jr. Medal for Signature Bridges in 2012.
