Pasupati Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Bandung, Indonesia.
Pasupati Bridge is a cable-stayed structure spanning the Cikapundung valley, connecting the northern and eastern sections of Bandung. The bridge features steel cables supported by pylons, creating a modern transportation link across the valley.
Construction began in October 2001 and finished in June 2005, supported by funding from Kuwait's government. The project improved transportation connections across the valley during that period.
The name comes from two street names, Pasteur and Surapati, replacing the former local term for elevated highways. It has become a familiar landmark in daily life for people traveling across the valley.
The bridge is easily accessible and simplifies travel across the valley between the two city sections. Visitors can view the structure from various angles and use the established pathways to navigate the area.
The bridge uses French-developed earthquake protection technology with special locking mechanisms that set it apart in Indonesia. This engineering feature contributes to its stability and safety performance.
