Hundwilertobel-Brücke, Reinforced concrete arch bridge in Appenzell Ausserrhoden, Switzerland.

The Hundwilertobel-Brücke spans 268.8 meters across the Urnäsch river, reaching a height of 77 meters with its main arch extending 143 meters.

Built in 1992, this bridge replaced the original 1925 structure that suffered from increasing traffic loads and deteriorating steel reinforcements.

The bridge serves as a connection point between the communities of Hundwil and Waldstatt, representing modern engineering in the Swiss canton.

The structure includes a 10.76-meter wide roadway that accommodates vehicles while connecting the transportation network between Appenzell and Herisau.

In 2017, the bridge received an extensive safety system consisting of protective nets covering 720 square meters, requiring an investment of 800,000 Swiss Francs.
