Overview

 Tanno bridge has a long history. In 1903, settlement began in the Kawamukai area, and the first Tanno bridge was constructed using funds from all the residents in 1914 because accidents often occurred when people crossed the Tokoro River. A succession of Tanno Bridges (first to fifth) were damaged by floods or washed away, to be followed by reconstruction of a new Tanno Bridge. The sixth Tanno Bridge was constructed in 1959, and was not washed away, but the seventh Tanno Bridge (currently in service) replaced it in order to deal with an increase in traffic and vehicle size, provide a sidewalk, and to improve earthquake resistance.
