Tees Viaduct, Road bridge connecting Middlesbrough and Stockton-on-Tees, England
The A19 Tees Viaduct extends 2.9 kilometers across the River Tees with 68 spans, including a main span of 117 meters over the water.
Construction of the steel and concrete structure began in 1973, and the viaduct officially opened in November 1975 as a vital transportation link.
The viaduct represents a major engineering achievement in Northeast England, connecting communities and facilitating regional economic development since its construction.
The six-lane dual carriageway accommodates an average of 112,000 vehicles daily, with regular maintenance work scheduled during off-peak hours to minimize disruption.
The bridge features special joints that allow the structure to naturally expand and contract according to weather conditions and traffic movement patterns.
