Soleri Viaduct, Road-rail bridge in Cuneo, Italy.
The Soleri Viaduct is a road-rail bridge that crosses the Stura di Demonte valley near Cuneo, connecting the city to the left bank of the river. The structure sits at a height of about 50 meters and uses 34 arches to span the valley.
Construction of the viaduct began in 1913 when King Victor Emmanuel III attended the foundation stone ceremony, and the structure opened completely in 1937. After World War II, it was renamed from the Great Stura Viaduct to honor Italian politician Marcello Soleri.
The structure changed its name from 'Great Stura Viaduct' to 'Soleri Viaduct' during the post-World War II reconstruction, honoring Italian politician Marcello Soleri.
The viaduct can be viewed from the road and from the bottom of the Stura valley for a full view of its scale and structure. The best viewing points are from below or from nearby roads that run through the valley floor.
The structure forms a Y-shape when viewed from above, with a shared section supporting both road and rail before splitting into separate branches as they approach the city. This unusual design allows both transportation modes to travel along the same core before diverging near Cuneo.
