The San Roque González de Santa Cruz Bridge is a 2,550 metres (8,366 ft) long cable-stayed bridge that crosses the Paraná River between the cities of Posadas, capital of Misiones Province, Argentina and Encarnación, capital of Itapúa, Paraguay.

[1] The bridge, named for the founder of the missions which evolved into both cities, was first projected in 1977 through an agreement between the governments of Argentina and Paraguay, as a compensation to Paraguay for the flooding of part of its territory by the Yacyretá Dam.

[2] It was construct by a consortium leading by the Italian company Impregilo.

[3] The road-rail bridge also carries the Posadas-Encarnacion International Train.
