Weißeritztalbrücke, Road bridge in Dresden, Germany
The Weißeritztalbrücke spans 218 meters across the Weißeritz Valley, connecting two sections of the A17 motorway through a tunnel-bridge-tunnel configuration.
The bridge construction started in spring 2000 and concluded in 2002, with final costs reaching 23 million euros before its official opening in December 2004.
The bridge design by architect Egon Jux incorporates turquoise-colored concrete beams and four reinforced concrete pillars that rise 28 meters above the valley floor.
The structure consists of two separate bridges, with the eastern section measuring 219 meters and the western section extending 217 meters for each driving direction.
The bridge simultaneously passes over the Weißeritz River, Tharandter Street, and the Dresden-Werdau railway line while marking the border between Dölzschen and Coschütz districts.
