Ponte Juscelino Kubitschek de Oliveira, Road bridge over Lake Paranoá in Brasília, Brazil
The Juscelino Kubitschek Bridge extends 1,200 meters across Lake Paranoá with three asymmetrical steel arches rising 60 meters above the water surface.
The bridge opened in December 2002 after a two-year construction period, with total costs reaching approximately 56.8 million US dollars.
The structure carries the name of President Juscelino Kubitschek, who initiated the construction of Brasília as Brazil's new capital in the 1950s.
The bridge accommodates six traffic lanes, divided into two three-lane carriageways, plus dedicated paths for cyclists and pedestrians on both sides.
Four concrete pillars anchor into Lake Paranoá's bed while steel cables form an interlaced pattern supporting the bridge deck from the diagonal arches.
