Barranquilla, Colombia
Pumarejo bridge
The Pumarejo bridge is a bridge over the Río Magdalena in Barranquilla and the Salamanca Island Road Park in Sitionuevo, Colombia, which has connected the city with the east of the country since December 20th 2019. It replaces the old Puente Pumarejo, which fulfilled this task between 1974 and 2019, but for which a bridge with a clearance below of only 16 meters was chosen for cost reasons, which soon criticized as an obstacle for shipping on the Río Magdalena has been. The two lanes no longer did justice to the increased traffic.
