Another beautiful French prestressed beam bridge, the Colagne viaduc connects route 88 to the A75 motorway by cutting across a wide valley with an appropriately wide main span of 623 feet (190 mtrs). As with most French viaducts, the piers are especially elegant with a curvy oval cross section accented by a subtle slit running up the sides. The tallest pier is 356 feet (108.5 mtrs). André Mascarelli is the talented architect.
