Aglio viaduct

The Aglio Viaduct is a reinforced concrete bridge that spans 439 meters across a valley near Barberino di Mugello. The structure consists of multiple arches that carry traffic over the challenging terrain below.

The viaduct was completed in 1960 as part of post-war infrastructure development in Tuscany. It created a crucial transportation route through the mountainous region to better connect local communities.

The viaduct represents the engineering capabilities of Italian infrastructure projects during the mid-twentieth century, connecting communities across the regional landscape.

The viaduct is accessible by car via the main road and forms part of the Variante di Valico route. The best time to visit is during dry weather, as the surrounding area can be challenging to explore when it rains.

The structure was specifically designed to account for the geological features of the site. Its design demonstrates how engineers of that era solved the challenge of building across difficult mountain terrain.
