The Washington Elias dos Santos Integration Bridge across the Matapi illustrates changing journeys in Amapá's metropolitan region. Opened by the state government in December 2016, it replaced the ferry crossing at this connection with Mazagão. The structure is on the AP-020 corridor in Santana and appears in the 2024 tourism survey.

Its interest combines river scenery with the history of connections between towns, rural production and trade. Santana's municipality has documented special abseiling activities during summer programmes. Those were organised events, rather than ongoing permission to practise independently.

Observe from permitted areas nearby and arrange any activity with qualified organisers. The bridge carries traffic: do not stop on the roadway for photographs or assume that shoulders, private riverbanks and technical access areas are public viewpoints.
