Talbrücke Reichenbach

The Talbrücke Reichenbach is a highway bridge that spans across a valley near Geraberg, connecting two landscape areas with a steel and concrete structure. The bridge carries multiple lanes of traffic across a deep gorge using a series of supporting pillars beneath its length.

The bridge was completed in 2002 as part of highway infrastructure development in the region using modern engineering techniques. This construction project was necessary to improve transportation connections across the valley that separated two areas.

The bridge stands as an example of modern German engineering, incorporating advanced structural techniques in the Thuringian Forest region.

The bridge provides a safe and direct route for vehicles crossing the valley with clearly marked lanes for traffic. Visitors can best observe the structure from nearby viewpoints or rest areas along the surrounding roads.

The structure has transparent wind protection barriers that were added in 2009 to shield vehicles from strong air currents. This addition shows how engineers make practical improvements when operational issues arise during normal use.
