Kinzigtalbrücke, Road bridge in Bad Soden-Salmünster, Germany.
The Kinzigtalbrücke is a highway bridge on the A66 autobahn that spans nearly 1 kilometer across the valley, passing over several transportation routes below. The structure consists of prestressed concrete in a hollow box design and carries four lanes of traffic.
The bridge was built in the early 1990s as an important infrastructure project to expand the highway in this region. Its completion marked a significant step in improving transportation connections across the Kinzig valley.
The bridge connects communities on both sides of the Kinzig valley and serves as a daily part of the regional transportation network. It has become a familiar landmark in the landscape that locals pass through without much thought during their journeys.
The bridge is in constant use as part of the A66 autobahn and carries thousands of vehicles daily. Visitors wanting to explore the area can observe it from several viewpoints in the valley below.
The bridge crosses multiple transportation routes simultaneously, including the Kinzig River and local roads, in a single architectural span. This multi-level crossing makes it an exceptional engineering achievement in valley construction.
