Aciliu Viaduct

The Aciliu Viaduct is a steel road bridge near Aciliu that stretches across a valley in Transylvania and crosses the landscape in a striking way. The structure is made up of several long spans that rest on massive pillars and bridge the valley below.

The viaduct was planned in the early 2010s as part of a major motorway project and completed in less than a year. Its quick construction was possible through advanced building techniques and careful planning.

The viaduct serves as a key link that brings together cities across Transylvania and moves traffic through a mountainous region. It shows how modern infrastructure connects local communities with one another.

The viaduct is well designed for through traffic and allows drivers to move quickly across the hilly area. The drive across the bridge itself is fairly quick and offers views of the valley and surrounding landscape.

The bridge rests on extremely deep foundations that reach far into the ground to stabilize the sandy soils of the valley. This elaborate engineering makes the construction here an interesting example of challenges in building bridges over complex ground conditions.
