Talbrücke Schnaittach, Girder bridge in Schnaittach, Germany.
Talbrücke Schnaittach is a prestressed concrete girder bridge crossing a valley near Schnaittach. The structure supports a federal motorway and state road traffic while also carrying a railway line underneath its length.
The bridge was built between 1995 and 1998 as a modern solution for crossing the valley. Its completion represented a significant upgrade to regional transportation infrastructure during that period.
The bridge forms part of the Hienberg ascent on the A9 motorway, integrating with the regional infrastructure network that connects local communities.
The bridge is viewable from various vantage points across the surrounding area. Visitors wishing to see the structure closely should plan access from the surrounding roads or viewpoints along the valley.
One section was constructed using the incremental launching method, where long concrete segments were progressively pushed forward from temporary supports. This technique allowed the valley crossing to be completed without extensive temporary scaffolding across the entire span.
