The work was continued by Afonso Álvares, Diogo Marques and Pero Vaz Pereira, who finally completed the work in 1622. The approx. 8 km long structure, the main part of which consists of four rows of arches placed one on top of the other and resting on buttresses, is one of the symbols of the city of Elvas. Extensive conservation and renovation work was carried out in the 19th century.

Near Elvas is an enormous aqueduct, the Aqueduto da Amoreira. It took 100 years before the aqueduct was completed in 1622. The aqueduct has 4 floors and is 7 km long.
