Haengju Bridge, Road bridge in Gangseo District, South Korea
Haengju Bridge is a road bridge spanning over 2 kilometers across the Han River, connecting Gangseo-gu in Seoul with Deogyang-gu in Gyeonggi Province. The structure features multiple traffic lanes and dedicated pedestrian paths for daily movement.
The original structure dates to 1978 and underwent major reconstruction after a construction incident in 1992. This rebuilding led to the current dual-bridge configuration completed in the early 2000s.
The name references the region's past significance and is written in traditional Hanja characters. This naming reflects how local geography is deeply rooted in historical identity.
The bridge connects major traffic routes, including access to the Incheon International Airport Expressway. Pedestrians can use dedicated paths, making crossing safe and accessible for everyone.
The current design features two parallel bridges that handle traffic in opposite directions. This dual structure was completed in stages during the 1990s and 2000s.
