Youtefa Bridge, Arch bridge in Jayapura, Indonesia
The red steel bridge connects the districts of Jayapura and Muara Tami across Youtefa Bay, extending 732 meters over the water.
Construction of the bridge began in May 2015, with the main span assembled at PT PAL Indonesia in Surabaya before transport to Papua.
The name changed from Holtekamp to Youtefa following requests from the Tobati and Enggros indigenous communities whose territories the bridge crosses.
The bridge reduces travel time between Jayapura City and Muara Tami District from one hour to fifteen minutes, cutting the distance from 35 to 12 kilometers.
The structure earned two Indonesian Museum of Records certificates, including one for the longest distance transport of an intact steel frame bridge.
