Since completion in 1974 it has remained the longest bridge in the country. It was significantly damaged in the February 27, 2010 earthquake.

▲When it was finished in 1974, this bridge hasn't a name, but it was called by people as "Puente Nuevo" (The New Bridge), beacause it was the second bridge across the Bio-Bio River after "Puente Viejo" (Old Bridge), actually closed to the cars traffic.
