The Second Orinoco crossing or Orinoquia Bridge is a combined road and railway bridge over the Orinoco River near Ciudad Guayana, Venezuela. It was inaugurated on November 13, 2006 and named Orinoquia Bridge. Prior to its construction, the only crossing of the Orinoco was the Angostura Bridge around 100 km farther upstream at Ciudad Bolívar that was opened in 1967. Near the bridge, there is Orinoco powerline crossing, whose pylons are the tallest man-made structures in South America today.

  • Die Puente Orinoquia (auch Zweite Orinoco-Brücke genannt) ist eine Straßen- und Eisenbahnbrücke über den Orinoco bei Ciudad Guayana im Bundesstaat Bolívar von Venezuela. Sie ist die zweite Brücke über den Orinoco nach der Puente de Angostura bei Ciudad Bolivar ungefähr 120 Straßenkilometer stromaufwärts. Die dritte Brücke über den Orinoco, die Puente Mercosur, wird wohl 2016 eröffnet werden; sie steht 480 km weiter flussaufwärts. (de)

La obra, que fue financiada y coordinada por la Corporación Venezolana de Guayana, y ejecutada por la empresa brasileña Odebrecht y el Ministerio de Infraestructura de Venezuela constituye un sistema vial mixto que conecta el estado Estado Anzoátegui y la región central no sólo con la región de Guayana sino además con Brasil.

  • The Second Orinoco crossing or Orinoquia Bridge is a combined road and railway bridge over the Orinoco River near Ciudad Guayana, Venezuela. It was inaugurated on November 13, 2006 and named Orinoquia Bridge. Prior to its construction, the only crossing of the Orinoco was the Angostura Bridge around 100 km farther upstream at Ciudad Bolívar that was opened in 1967. At the site chosen for the bridge the Orinoco is three kilometres wide with two navigation channels separated by a small island that is revealed during the low water season. The average discharge of the river here varies between 66 000 m³/s and 85 000 m³/s, flowing at up to 2.6 m/s and with a seasonal variation in level of 12.5 m. The crossing is composed of approximately 4.5 km of structures and carries four lanes of road traffic separated into two carriageways by a single railway track in the centre. It consists of two cable stayed navigation spans each of 300 m with a south approach 1320 m long composed of 22 60 m spans and a north approach of 636 m composed of ten 60 m spans and one of 36 m. The two navigation spans have a clearance of 41 m above water level and are supported by four 120 m tall H-shaped pylons via two planes of cable stays. Unusually, these spans do not lead directly into each other as at other multi-span cable stayed bridges such as the Millau Viaduct, but are anchored at a fixed point on the mid-stream island. The bridge was built to complement the existing Angostura Bridge and to provide a more direct connection with the important industrial city of Ciudad Guayana. In particular, it was intended to provide for a future rail connection to allow the city's heavy industrial products to be transported to the ports of Venezuela's Caribbean coast. River transport on the Orinoco includes oceangoing ships, but because of its high sediment load the Orinoco has to be constantly dredged. In addition the crossing strengthens transport links between Venezuela and Brazil to the South which is important for Brazilian exports. This is one reason why President Lula da Silva of Brazil attended the inauguration together with Venezuela's Hugo Chávez. Near the bridge, there is Orinoco powerline crossing, whose pylons are the tallest man-made structures in South America today. (en)
