Dazzling bypass near Millau
|
|
Travelers in France heading south over the A75 will soon be able to soar over the Tarn Valley rather than driving through it. ARCADIS designed a viaduct, spanning the entire valley at a dazzling height of 340 meters and a length of 2,500 meters. The bridge consists of seven interconnected spans, each of differing heights. ARCADIS produced the technical design for this complex structure after first completing numerous studies, one of which considered the possible effects of turbulence. The bypass will relieve traffic congestion in the valley and the resulting environmental impacts. The bridge is both an engineering masterpiece and an astonishing piece of art.
