Abdoun Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Amman, Jordan.

The bridge extends across Wadi Abdoun with three Y-shaped towers supporting two main spans of 134 meters through steel cable arrangements.

Construction of the Abdoun Bridge started in December 2002 and the official inauguration ceremony took place on December 14, 2006.

The bridge represents a major development in Jordan's infrastructure, connecting the northern districts of Amman to central areas including Zahran Street.

The structure carries multiple traffic lanes across a distance of 417 meters and rises 71 meters above the ground, improving transportation flow in the city.

Engineers incorporated an S-curve shape into the deck design to facilitate proper connections with the existing road network on both sides.
