About Ponte Pênsil
São Vicente Suspension Bridge is a suspension bridge in São Vicente, São Paulo, Brazil. It was one of the first suspension bridges in Brazil, and carries vehicle and pedestrian traffic between Morro dos Barbosas and Japuí. Originally conceived in 1910 as a way to carry sewage away from the city of Santos and São Vicente, construction started in 1911, and the bridge opened in May 1914. It was restored in 2015, with the corroded load-bearing cables replaced along with other repair work.
