The transporter bridge was the first link to connect [[Buenos Aires]] with the outskirts on the other side of the [[Matanza River|Riachuelo River]]. The bridge links the Avenida La Plata in the neighbourhood Island Maciel of [[Dock Sud]] with Avenida Almirante Brown in the [[La Boca]] neighbourhood of Buenos Aires.
 
The name of the bridge refers to [[Nicolás Avellaneda]], a former president of Argentina, who also gave the name to the [[Avellaneda Partido]] on the right bank of the river.
 
The platform of the transporter bridge measured 8 by 12 metres and could be operated from a control stand on itself or from the machine house. It was designed to carry pedestrians, carts, cars and trams.
 
==History==
On September 25, 1908 the [[Buenos Aires Great Southern Railway]] was authorised to build a transporter bridge uniting the city of Buenos Aires with [[Buenos Aires Province]] south of the [[Matanza River|Riachuelo River]]. Buenos Aires Province bore all the costs of the bridge despite it also serving the Argentinian capital.
 
The transporter bridge was inaugurated May 31, 1914 and operated until 1960. The [[Puente Nicolás Avellaneda]] road bridge (just 100 metres away), was constructed in 1940.
 
In 1997, plans were announced to restore the bridge at a cost of USD US$1.2 million.<ref name="clarin restoration">[http://www.clarin.com Clarin.com], 1997-11-29: ''[http://www.clarin.com/diario/1997/11/29/e-06301d.htm Restaurarán el puente Nicolás Avellaneda]''</ref>. The bridge was slated to resume operation on Thursday 28 September 2017.<ref name="clarin resumption">[http://www.clarin.com Clarin.com], 2017-09-25: ''[https://www.clarin.com/ciudades/transbordador-puente-boca-vuelve-funcionar-viaje-vecinos_0_Byk4vWDsW.html El Transbordador del Puente de La Boca vuelve a funcionar con un viaje para los vecinos]''</ref>.
