The bridge with the Via Emilia is anything but special. The railway bridge, on the other hand, is a ponte strallato (cable bridge) that runs the ferrovia ad alta velocità Milano-Bologna over the River Po near Piacenza. This impressive bridgework is located at kilometer point 44.232 of the Milano-Bologna high-speed line.
The entire viaduct that spans the Po has a length of 1,342 meters.
The actual cable bridge section extends over 400 meters and spans the normal riverbed of the Po. The width of this section is 300 meters.
The bridge deck consists of a three-cell concrete structure that rests on pillars on the banks. The weight is carried by 72 cables connected to two antennas. The central span measures 192 meters, while the two side spans are each 104 meters long.
This bridge project was originally the largest steel and reinforced concrete railway bridge in the world and plays a crucial role in modern rail traffic between Milan and Bologna.
