Korean Travel Online - Daejeon Expo Bridge at Night

Following the great success and end of Daejeon Expo '93, the Expo Park was built in the same area in order to carry on the introduction and propagation of ultramodern scientific technology. 

Expo Bridge was built as part of the expo. This twin arch bridge is situated over a small river and has a total length of approximately 330m, including approach span. The twin arch bridge itself has a main span of 100 m. The main orthotropic steel deck is supported by 100 bundled CFRC (Center Fit Rope Core) suspender ropes with a diameter of 50 mm. The superstructure is supported by twin 32 m high steel arches. The overall width of the deck is 18 m, including 4.5 m pedestrian sidewalks on both sides. The two crossing arch members behave as a frame to support the superstructure, which is suspended from the arch members using 100 cables. The number of cables was selected to celebrate a centennial of participation by Korea in international expositions.

At night, the bridge lights up with the beautiful city lights and nightscape in the background.
