Old Daxi Bridge, Transportation landmark in Taoyuan City, Taiwan.

The steel and concrete bridge spans across the lower Daxi River, connecting Taichung City with Miaoli County through multiple structural sections.

Built in 1920 during Japanese rule, the bridge initially served both railway and highway purposes until newer structures replaced its transportation functions in 1975.

The bridge structure represents early 20th century engineering methods in Taiwan, combining railway and road designs in a single crossing point.

The bridge remains closed to public access due to structural damage from a 2004 typhoon, with ongoing restoration work managed by the Dajia District Office.

The bridge features distinct sections for former rail and road traffic, with remaining steel trusses and concrete piers marking its dual-purpose design.
