Lefkada bridge, Pontoon bridge in Lefkada Town, Greece
The Lefkada Bridge rotates 90 degrees to allow ships passage through the canal while temporarily halting vehicle traffic between the island and mainland.
The metal structure stands near Agia Mavra Castle, connecting Lefkada island to continental Greece since its construction as a vital transportation link.
The bridge functions as a central meeting point where residents gather to watch boats pass through the canal and observe maritime activities.
Traffic lights control vehicle and boat movements, with the bridge closing for 10-15 minutes every hour between 08:00 and 22:00 for maritime passage.
The bridge structure requires careful navigation due to its floating design, creating a distinctive surface texture that drivers experience during crossing.
