Sente Longo, Steel and concrete bridge in Abruzzo and Molise, Italy
The Sente Longo viaduct extends 1200 meters across the Sente River valley, connecting the provinces of Chieti and Isernia at 185 meters above ground level.
Construction of the bridge started in 1974 and completed in 1977, with worker Francesco Paolo Longo losing his life during the initial building phase.
The bridge represents a vital connection between mountain communities in Abruzzo and Molise, linking Castiglione Messer Marino with Belmonte del Sannio.
Since September 2018, the bridge remains closed to traffic due to structural concerns identified after the Molise earthquake of August 2018.
The Sente Longo viaduct ranks as Italy's tallest road bridge, surpassing the Cadore Bridge by one meter in height.
