Kingsmead Viaduct, Road bridge in Ware, United Kingdom.
The Kingsmead Viaduct spans across the River Lea Valley with 19 separate spans reaching a height of 65 feet and extending 716 meters in length.
The construction of this concrete box girder bridge began in November 1973 and opened to traffic on August 17, 1976, costing £3.6 million at the time.
The viaduct crosses over the King's Meads Nature Reserve, connecting communities while preserving the natural landscape of the Lea Valley region.
The dual-carriageway structure carries the A10 road over the River Lea, the New River, and the Hertford East railway line, linking Ware with surrounding areas.
The bridge required 42,000 tons of concrete during construction and underwent major renovations in 2005 to replace expansion joints and resurface both carriageways.
