Biaschina viaduct

The Biaschina Viaduct is a prestressed concrete road bridge that spans across a valley of the Ticino River with multiple sections of varying lengths. The structure features a distinctive arched design that rises prominently above the surrounding terrain.

The viaduct was designed in the 1980s as part of the expansion of the A2 motorway to create an important connection through the Alps. The structure was completed during a period of major infrastructure development in Switzerland.

The bridge represents Swiss engineering precision through its mathematical design and structural elements, demonstrating the nation's commitment to infrastructure development.

Access to the viaduct is via the A2 motorway, which passes through the site and connects regional areas. Visitors can view the structure from the valley below or from nearby viewpoints along the route.

The structure sits in a narrow valley alongside other major transportation routes nearby, making it a central point in a network of Alpine transport connections. This proximity to other significant infrastructure projects underscores the strategic importance of the location.
