The Laguna Garzón Bridge is a bridge famous for its unusual circular shape. It is located in Garzón, Uruguay and was designed by renowned Uruguayan architect Rafael Viñoly. It was designed in a circular shape to force drivers to slow down, and allows for pedestrian access along the one-way circular route.
It was opened to vehicular traffic in December 2015.
