Ağın Bridge, Cable-stayed steel bridge in Ağın, Turkey.

The Ağın Bridge extends 520 meters across Lake Keban with a central span of 280 meters and rises 55 meters above the water level.

The bridge construction started in 2001, paused for modifications, resumed in 2012, and reached completion with its opening on October 26, 2015.

The bridge name connects to the legacy of the former Karamağara Bridge, a Roman structure submerged during the creation of Keban Dam in 1974.

The bridge replaced the ferry service between Ağın and Elazığ, providing two traffic lanes that support regional transportation and economic development.

The structure incorporates vertical support elements that distribute weight through cables attached to towers, delivering superior stability compared to suspension designs.
