Suplacu de Barcău Viaduct, Major transportation bridge in Suplacu de Barcău, Romania.

The viaduct extends across 1800 meters with 45 spans, measuring 40 meters each, utilizing concrete and steel reinforcement in its construction.

Construction began as part of the A3 Transylvania Motorway project, with initial work by Bechtel Corporation reaching 90 percent completion before temporary suspension.

The structure represents a substantial engineering advancement in Romanian infrastructure, connecting communities across the Suplacu basin region.

The bridge construction requires 88,000 cubic meters of concrete, 6.5 tonnes of reinforcement steel, and 360 pre-cast U-beams weighing 160 tonnes each.

Upon completion, this structure will rank as the second-longest viaduct in Europe, following France's Millau Viaduct, and the largest in southeastern Europe.
