Long Description:
This bridge is located in Portimão, Algarve.
The Old Portimão bridge was getting old and didn´t suport the
amount of trafic that was going trough and right inside the city so
it was decided to build a new one , some kms up the river leading
the trafic outside the town instead of trough it.
It´s a small bridge (compared with other suspended bridges), it has
2 towers (A shaped) with 62m (203ft) high and an extension of 842 m
(2762ft).
