Geobukseon bridge, Road bridge in Yeosu, South Korea

The Geobukseon Bridge extends 464 meters across the Namhae sea, connecting the Port of Yeosu with Dolsando through a cable-stayed structure.

Opening in 2012, the bridge served as critical infrastructure during the Yeosu Expo, reducing traffic congestion from the First Dolsan Bridge built in 1985.

The bridge name draws from Korean maritime traditions, while its modern design reflects South Korea's engineering capabilities in the twenty-first century.

Four traffic lanes accommodate vehicles at speeds up to 60 kilometers per hour, with a navigation channel width of 120 meters beneath.

Two H-type pylons rise 90 meters high, supporting 52 cables per plane with tensile strengths of 1860 MPa for structural stability.
