Tampico Bridge

The bridge crosses the Pánuco River near the coast of the Gulf of Mexico.

It connects the city of Tampico in Tamaulipas and Pueblo Viejo Municipality in Veracruz.

The bridge has been in service since 1988 and was designed by Professor Modesto Armijo from COMEC, a Mexican engineering company.

The dynamic analysis of the bridge under turbulent cyclonic winds, as well as the revision of the structural project, and the geometry plus stress control of the bridge during erection, were achieved by Alain Chauvin from Sogelerg, using the French "Scanner" computer program.

The bridge is tolled by Caminos y Puentes Federales, which charges cars 38 pesos to use it, as of July 2024.
