Viaduct over the Fiumarella river
The viaduct over the Fiumarella river, which links Catanzaro and the Two Seas lines of communication, has recently been opened to the public. The central arch has a theoretical span of 231 m and a maximum rise of 62 m. It bridges a river, and is made of reinforced concrete. The cross section is a ho...
