Talbrücke Rälsbach, Highway bridge in Wilnsdorf, Germany.

Description

Talbrücke Rälsbach is a highway bridge carrying A45 autobahn traffic over a valley near Wilnsdorf. It comprises two parallel concrete structures that were rebuilt to accommodate modern traffic demands with expanded lane capacity.

History

This crossing opened in 1966 as part of Germany's motorway network expansion, linking the Siegen-Süd and Wilnsdorf sections. After five decades of service, it was rebuilt from 2017 to 2022 to meet growing traffic demands.

Culture
