Tsuruyabashi Bridge Replacement Business

Shimbashi was opened on September 29, 2017. Thank you very much for your cooperation.

Tsuruyabashi Bridge is a bridge that connects 2-chome Tsuruya-cho, Kanagawa-ku and Minamiko 1-chome, Nishi-ku, and spans the Katabira River Branch Canal (Aratama River).
Over fifty years have passed since the completion of the old bridge, Tsuruyabashi Bridge was aging. In addition, the number of pedestrians a day was very large, about 50,000, but the sidewalk was narrow and hindered traffic, so replacement work was carried out.
After the replacement, the sidewalk was widened, the earthquake resistance and flood control safety were increased, and the bridge was reborn as a safe and secure bridge.

From 2-17, Tsuruya-cho, Kanagawa-ku, Yokohama-shi to 1-2 Minamiko, Nishi-ku
