San Marcos Bridge, Highway bridge in Xicotepec de Juárez, Puebla, Mexico
The San Marcos Bridge extends 850 meters across the San Marcos River, featuring concrete beam construction and rising 220 meters above the valley floor.
The bridge, completed in 2013, forms a critical section of the México-Tuxpan highway project connecting Mexico City to the Gulf of Mexico through mountainous terrain.
This engineering structure represents Mexican infrastructure development, connecting communities while integrating with the regional transport network of Puebla state.
The bridge reduces travel time between Mexico City and Tuxpan, providing a direct route through previously difficult-to-navigate mountainous regions.
The structure contains the second-highest bridge pier in the world, measuring 208 meters from its foundation to the deck level.
