About
The Los Fundadores Bridge (Spanish: Intercambio Vial Los Fundadores), also known as the Peldar Bridge because of its location, is a concrete cable-stayed bridge in Envigado, Colombia. The bridge carries Las Vegas Avenue and crosses 37th Street.
The construction of the bridge was also central to the regeneration plan for the neighborhood. This bridge was conceived as representation of the effort and persistence of the community to overcome the convulsed situation that prevailed in the country at the time of construction. The municipality faced with the challenge to build a road connection in the Las Vegas Avenue, decided to design a bridge of exceptional character, a landmark.
