Kikwete Bridge, Steel bridge across Malagarasi River in Uvinza, Tanzania
The Kikwete Bridge extends 275 meters across the Malagarasi River with seven concrete spans and two traffic lanes connecting regional transportation networks.
The engineering design by Hanil Engineering and Construction Company from South Korea led to construction between December 2010 and September 2015.
The bridge received its name from President Jakaya Kikwete who inaugurated this infrastructure project on September 16, 2015.
The structure cost 56 million US dollars and replaced the previous Malagarasi Bridge while improving regional connectivity for vehicles and pedestrians.
The bridge features seven spans of reinforced concrete that carry the B8 road across one of Tanzania's major rivers in the western region.
