Shin-Urashima Bridge Rebuilding Project

We are promoting the replacement business of Shin-Urashima Bridge. At noon on Friday, January 12, 2018, we started service of new bridge.

In the future, we will remove temporary humanitarian bridges that have already been closed and restore land borrowed from local residents.

The Shin-Urashima Bridge, which spans the Irie River No. 2 river in Kanagawa Ward, was built from the late Meiji era to the early Taisho (estimated). After that, Nippon Carbon Co., Ltd. used it as a dedicated bridge, replaced the girder in 1955, and reinforced the substructure and widened the sidewalk with the construction of the Metropolitan Expressway Yokohama Haneda Line in 1971, and Yokohama City was transferred in 1987.
Due to the deterioration over time, the strength of piers and floor slabs has been reduced, and earthquake countermeasures are also urgently needed in terms of disaster prevention. We carried out maintenance of sidewalk.

From 363 Urashima-cho, Kanagawa-ku, Yokohama-shi to 1-1-25 Shinurashima-cho
