Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan Bridges: Nagayoshi Bridge across the Kotsuki River

September 2013 (31.6003 Degrees, 130.5381 Degrees) Nagayoshi Bridge

As we continue upstream the bridges across the Kotsuki River get fancier (or at least their barrier rail and lampposts get fancier). The Nagayoshi Bridge is a two span steel girder bridge on a very wide pier wall.

The Nagayoshi Bridge has decorative wooden timbers stuck to the vertical rails, tall thickened lampposts attached to protrusions on the exterior girders, widened bridge ends, and signposts at the beginning and end of the bridge (see below).
