龜崙嶺鐵道橋遺構

臺1甲線上的「第二尖山橋」、「大坑溪橋」橋下基座大有來頭,橫跨塔寮坑溪上游野溪,它們是清代臺北到新竹段鐵道橋樑遺構,是臺灣首任巡撫劉銘傳推動近代化的重要證物。

  清代經龜崙嶺山區到桃園段的鐵道完成於光緒17年(1891),途中所架設之「九芎坑木橋」及「九芎頭坑木橋」,即為「第二尖山橋」及「大坑溪橋」前身。繼任巡撫卲友濂曾以「北穿獅嶺洞隧百尋,南渡龜崙則坂踰九折,路工之難如此。」形容龜崙嶺鐵道工程之困難與獅球嶺隧道旗鼓相當。

  日治之初,由於清代所築鐵道路線標準不理想,坡度大、路線過於彎曲而進行路線改良,臺北到桃園路線改為經萬華、板橋、樹林、山佳及鶯歌。新路線開通後,廢線的鐵道路基多改為道路使用,「九芎坑木橋」及「九芎頭坑木橋」即於明治40年(1907)改建為一般道路橋樑,並改稱「尖山橋」及「大坑溪橋」。昭和5年(1930)進行道路橋樑拓寬工程,構造皆改為RCT桁橋;後「尖山橋」更名為「第二尖山橋」。

  龜崙嶺鐵道橋遺構經多次改建與拓寬,尚能清晰分辨出清代的橋基與橋臺、日治時期的橋臺及拱體等結構,以及戰後民國時期的鋼筋混凝土構造,展現不同時代的土木技術。

    "Located on Provincial Highway #1A, the construction bases of "Second Jianshan Bridge" and "Dakengxi Bridge" are of historical significance. Crossing over the upper reaches of the Tajikeng River, they are the remains of railway bridges for the Taipei-Hsinchu line dated back to the Qing Dynasty, witnessing the determination of Taiwan's first governor, Liu Mingchuan, to promote modernization. This railway section from the Kulunling Mountain to Taoyuan was completed on the 17th year of Qing Emperor Guangxu (1891). Erected on the way, the Jiuqiongkeng Wooden Bridge and the Jiuqiongtoukeng Wooden Bridge were the predecessor of "Second Jianshan Bridge" and "Dakengxi Bridge". Governor Yu Youyi, the successor to Liu Mingchuan, had once said that "this railway section wears through the Shijaoling Tunnel for hundred miles in the north, and winds nine times through the Kulunling Mountain in the south. It is indeed a very difficult road work." His description clearly states that the Kulunling railway project was as difficult as the Shijaoling Tunnel railway project. During the early years of Japanese colonial period, the railway line from the Qing Dynasty was revamped due to its unsatisfactory standard with too many steep slopes and curves. The new Taipei-Taoyuan route changed to pass through Wanhua, Banqiao, Shulin, Shanjia and Yangge. After the new route was opened to the traffic, most of the old railway construction bases were revised for road use. The Jiuqiongkeng Wooden Bridge and the Jiuqiongtoukeng Wooden Bridge were converted into ordinary road bridges in the 40th year of Meiji reign (1907) and renamed as "Jianshan Bridge" and "Dakengxi Bridge". In the 5th year of the Showa reign (1930), the roads were widened and the bridges were reconstructed into RCT structure. Later, the "Jianshan Bridge" was renamed as "Second "Jianshan Bridge". Although rebuilt and widened for several times, the remains of the Kulunling Railway Bridge still clearly show which structure bases and abutments were from the Qing Dynasty, the Japanese
