Viaduc de la Chiers, Highway viaduct in Réhon, France

The Chiers Viaduct spans 584 meters across the Chiers Valley, reaching a height of 50 meters above the landscape in Meurthe-et-Moselle department.

Construction of the viaduct began in 1983 by the Eiffel company and concluded in 1987, marking a significant advancement in French transportation infrastructure.

The structure earned architect Charles Lavigne the European Steel Construction Prize in 1987 for its innovative design combining steel and concrete elements.

The viaduct carries National Route 52 with two lanes connecting the Moselle Valley to the Belgian border, facilitating transport between France, Belgium, and Luxembourg.

The concrete pillars support a steel and concrete deck that spans the valley without emergency lanes, yet experiences minimal traffic congestion.
