Talbrücke Pfeddersheim, Prestressed concrete motorway viaduct over the Pfrimm valley near Worms, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany

The Talbrücke Pfeddersheim is a 1471.4 m long prestressed concrete motorway bridge on the A61 between the Worms-Nord and Worms junctions, at kilometre 342. West of Worms it crosses the Pfrimm valley at a maximum height of 30 m in 34 spans, plus the Rheinhessenbahn (Worms–Alzey), the B47 and a local road. Its two parallel superstructures are continuous girders with a constant depth of 2.7 m and double-cell box sections; the piers reach 27 m.

Built between 1972 and 1975 at a cost of about 35 million DM, the bridge carries the A61 over the Pfrimm valley, the Rheinhessen railway, the B47 and a local road. In 2013 and 2014, external tendons were installed for 5.5 million euros after insufficient load capacity and cracking risk were found in the tendon couplings.

The bridge carries the A61 between the Worms-Nord and Worms junctions at kilometre 342, crossing the Pfrimm valley west of Worms. Its 34 spans also pass over the Rheinhessen railway line from Worms to Alzey, the B47 road and a local road linking Leiselheim and Pfeddersheim. The motorway runs in a curve across the structure.

The bridge is part of the A61 motorway and sits between the Worms-North and Worms exits. The best way to see it is from a nearby motorway rest area or from the valley below, where you can better appreciate its height.

The bridge has a special design with two box-shaped girders that remain consistently 2.7 meters tall. In 2013, additional external cables were added to increase its load capacity and extend its lifespan.
