Choluteca Bridge, Steel suspension bridge in Choluteca, Honduras.

The 300-meter suspension bridge spans across the Choluteca River with structural elements made of reinforced steel and concrete foundations.

Built between 1935 and 1937 by the United States Army Corps of Engineers, the bridge supported the construction of the Pan-American Highway.

The bridge represents a symbol of endurance for Honduras, marking a major infrastructure development in Central American transportation networks.

The bridge currently supports light vehicle traffic and connects the northern and southern sections of the Pan-American Highway through Choluteca.

After Hurricane Mitch in 1998, the bridge remained standing while the river changed course, leaving the structure temporarily disconnected from its access roads.
