This suspension bridge has a total length of 2.5 km and
crosses the Tarn River. It is 343 meters high, a world
record. The road, with two lanes on each side, will cross
the river at 270 meters above ground. At its highest point,
the viaduct is even higher than the Eiffel Tower. Conceived
by Norman Foster, this suspension bridge is supported by
seven pylons, instead of the two that are common for this
kind of construction.
