Cable-stayed bridge over the Adige river

Cable-stayed bridge over the Adige river, Cable-stayed bridge over the Adige river near Padua and Rovigo, Italy.

The Ponte strallato sul fiume Adige carries the A31 Valdastico sud motorway across the Adige between Piacenza d'Adige and Badia Polesine, from km 46+227 to km 47+315. Its deck runs 1,087 m: a 590 m cable-stayed bridge with a 310 m central span, flanked by two 250 m approach viaducts. White A-shaped pylons stand 110 m tall outside the river banks, each built from 28 m steel tubes of 4 m diameter and 32 mm wall thickness, weighing 100 tonnes.

The structural design came from Italprogetti (engineer Giorgio Caloisi) and Massimo Majowiecki's technical studio; Cimolai built the construction variant from 2006, finishing in 2010. The bridge opened to traffic only on 15 December 2014, together with the A31 stretch between the SS 434 Transpolesana and the Santa Margherita d'Adige tollbooth. Part of lot 12, approved in 2004, it cost €64,623,779 with a planned 1,140-day schedule.

The bridge carries the A31 motorway between the Badia Polesine barrier and the Piacenza d'Adige toll booth, a stretch with a minimum toll of €0.50 for cars and motorcycles. Its white A-shaped pylons stand outside the Adige embankments, between the localities of Ca' Bianca on the left bank and Polisenella on the right.

The bridge carries the A31 Valdastico sud motorway between the Badia Polesine barrier and the Piacenza d'Adige toll booth, so it is crossed by car only, not on foot. The deck runs from km 46+227 to km 47+315, with the pylons standing outside the Adige embankments, which are 11 m high at the crossing between Ca' Bianca and Polisenella.

The white A-shaped pylons stand outside the river embankments and reach 110 metres, 83 of them above the roadway. Each is built from 28-metre steel tubes, 4 metres in diameter and 32 mm thick, weighing 100 tonnes. Eight pairs of stays per pylon, 32 in all, run 110 to 166 metres and hold up 540 tonnes of cable.
