Yokohama Bay Bridge
横浜ベイブリッジ
An 860-meter cable-stayed bridge across Yokohama Port. It is lit up at night and is the star of night views of the harbor from Yamashita Pier and Nokendai Hill Park.
The Yokohama Bay Bridge opened in 1989. It is 860 meters long, with a main span of 460 meters, and is a double-deck cable-stayed bridge linking Honmoku Pier and Daikoku Pier. The upper deck carries the Metropolitan Expressway Wangan Line, and the lower deck is a national route. The “Sky Walk” pedestrian observation walkway on the bridge closed in 2010. Today, the best views are from Osanbashi Pier, Nokendai Hill Park, and Yamashita Park, or from harbor cruises that pass under the bridge. Drivers can go to the Daikoku Pier parking area for a close look at the bridge. The bridge is lit at night, and the lighting changes on the hour.
