Meaux Viaduct, Highway viaduct in Mareuil-lès-Meaux, France

The Meaux Viaduct is a curved viaduct carrying the French A140 motorway over the communes of Mareuil-lès-Meaux and Isles-lès-Villenoy in Seine-et-Marne. Running south-east to north, it crosses in succession the Meaux-Chalifert canal, the Marne, the Paris-Strasbourg railway line, the Ourcq canal and the D5 departmental road. Its pale grey concrete deck rests on rectangular piers with rounded arches, with dark blue steel V-shaped bracing between them.

The Meaux Viaduct carries the A140 motorway, not a railway. Running south-east to north, it crosses the Meaux-Chalifert canal, the Marne, the Paris-Strasbourg railway line, the Ourcq canal and the D5 road in succession. It stands on the land of Mareuil-lès-Meaux and Isles-lès-Villenoy in Seine-et-Marne.

The viaduct carries the A140 motorway, not a railway, across the Marne valley between Mareuil-lès-Meaux and Isles-lès-Villenoy. Drivers pass over the canal de Meaux à Chalifert, the Marne, the Paris–Strasbourg line, the canal de l'Ourcq and the D5 road in a single sweep, so the crossing is a daily landmark for commuters heading toward Paris.

The bridge is best viewed from the banks of the rivers and canals below or from nearby pathways. Daylight hours offer the clearest views of its structure and architectural details.

The viaduct crosses five obstacles in succession: the Meaux-Chalifert canal, the Marne, the Paris-Strasbourg railway line, the Ourcq canal and the D5 road. Its curve lets the deck meet each at a different angle, and the pale concrete piers with rounded arches alternate with dark blue steel V-bracing.
