    The Caposile pontoon bridge is a floating crossing south of the town of the same name, on the last stretch of the Sile cut, at the confluence with the Piave Vecchia. It is one of the 7 boat bridges currently operating in Italy; it allows you to reach the area known as the “Salsi”, a long narrow strip of territory towards the northern lagoon of Venice.

    From a structural point of view it consists of a steel deck resting on five concrete vessels. Its construction, which dates back to the 1960s, allowed direct road crossings (without passing through Jesolo) also allowing the river transit of boats, which in the past were mainly large "burci" carrying large loads of "litter". ” (marsh grasses) to fuel the brick kilns of the Treviso area.

    Even today, during the period from June to August, the bridge respects fixed opening hours.
