Ponte Estaiada João Isidoro França

Ponte Estaiada João Isidoro França is a cable-stayed bridge that crosses the river with a single mast supporting an elaborate cable system. The structure features three lanes for traffic and a separate walking area for pedestrians.

The structure was completed in 2010 to commemorate 150 years since the city's founding. It was named after João Isidoro França, the city's first master builder.

The bridge serves as a social hub where locals gather for leisure activities and enjoy views of the river below. It has become an important landmark in the city's identity and daily life.

The bridge is accessible for both pedestrians and vehicles with clear pathways and designated areas. It is easiest to visit during daylight hours when you can fully enjoy the surroundings.

At the top of the mast sits an observation area where visitors can see the entire city from above. An elevator carries people to this viewpoint, which offers panoramic views in all directions.
