Angostura Bridge is a suspension bridge that spans the Orinoco River at Ciudad Bolívar, Venezuela. The Spanish word Angostura means "narrows". Built in 1967 at a cost of US$35million,[1] the bridge has a total length of 1,678.50 meters, a distance of 1,272 meters between the two towers, and a main span of 712 meters. Until the opening of the 3,156-metre Second Orinoco crossing 100 km downstream near Ciudad Guayana on 13 November 2006, it was the only bridge across the Orinoco.
